The Supermarine Spitfire is one of the most legendary fighters of World War II, firmly establishing itself in aviation history as a symbol of Britain’s resistance during the Battle of Britain. The Mk I version was widely used by the Royal Air Force from 1938, while the upgraded Mk IIB variant, equipped with Hispano cannons, began appearing in 1941. Pilots from many nations flew Spitfires, including the famous Polish 303 and 306 Squadrons, whose markings can be found on this decal sheet.
