The Aviator Mod Team presents the Spitfire L.F. Mk.XVIe for 4.101m

This is the first mod to be released by the Aviator Mod Team! This pack represents the Spitfire L.F. Mk.XVIe with the bubble canopy, which appeared in RAF service around late 44/early 45. With the Luftwaffe barely coming to the fight, these aircraft switched from the interceptor role to ground attack. Some units even armed these aircraft with 2x RP-3 rockets on zero-length launchers. With the Packard-built Merlin 266 engine, clear view bubble canopy and clipped wings, this represented the ultimate Merlin Spitfire variant and is undoubtedly one of the finest piston fighters ever produced.

• Canopy can fall off at speeds over 250 kph TAS so do not exceed this whilst flying with it open.
