a seafire would be awesome ;)

 

Pity the Griffon Seafires were too late for any WW2 theatre - would have soothed the urge of those of us who desperately want a XIV.

 

Landplane would be Spit V or VIII - first one would also cover BoB, but it's basically a slower version of the one we have & the VIII isn't really that different.

I will love a Seafire as well, but AFAIK all WW2 variants were Vc variants, right?

 

Yeah, more or less. The Seafire III had a bigger engine, but still less power than a Spit IX I think - but a Spit IX is basically a V with a bigger engine anyway. The Seafire apparently handled a little differently but yeah, probably not going to be a full mod there...

For the sake of accuracy, the wartime Seafires were all developments from the Spitfire Mk V; the later models which saw action in the Pacific were optimized for lower alts, had a four bladed prop and the full complement of 12 exhaust pipes (instead of the Mk Vc standard three on a side) with the 'universal' filter under the nose. By all reports, they were absolute hot rods and a joy to fly.

 

They were ideal for running down kamikazes, and were quite good at it when the opportunity arose.

 

Landing on carriers was NOT a joy, however. Most were lost or damaged in landings. The basic airframe just wasn't designed with carrier landings in mind.
