O Spitfire: (Inglês)

Despite the British Air Ministry’s preference for biplane fighters in the early 1930s, Supermarine designer RJ Mitchell began work on an all-metal construction, single-engine, single-seat monoplane fighter with an enclosed cockpit and retractable landing gear. The Spitfire (Prototype K5054) made its first flight on March 5th 1936, and after demonstrating superb handling qualities, was ordered into mass production for the RAF. The first Spitfires entered service with No.19 Squadron at RAF Duxford in August 1938.

Initially, the Mk I variant was equipped with type A wings and four wing-mounted Colt-Browning Mk II .303 (7.7mm) machine guns, although this was soon increased to eight. Further upgrades included the use of a Rolls-Royce Merlin III engine instead of the original 1030 HP Merlin II; the original two blade fixed pitch wooden propeller was also replaced with a metal, variable pitch three bladed propeller of either Rotol or De Havilland design. A bulged canopy, bullet proof windscreen, armor plating and hydraulics to operate the gear and flaps were also introduced, partly as a result of the combat experience gained by Hurricane squadrons during the Battle of France.

Imagem

The first Spitfires had a basic targeting system consisting of a ringed sight, but by July of 1939 a more sophisticated collimator sight, the GM2 Mk II, began to be used; machines already in service were retrofitted with the new sights.

Imagem

In 1940, 30 aircraft were delivered to front line service for Operational Trials with the new Type B wing; the Spitfire Mk IB was armed with two 20mm Hispano cannon and four 0.303 Browning machine guns, and the older eight gun fighters were re-designated the Mk IA. However, the drum feed for the 20mm cannon proved to be very unreliable and prone to jamming, so the Mk IB was withdrawn from service.

Imagem

At the time of its introduction, right through the Battle of Britain in the summer of 1940, the Spitfire Mk I was considered by many to be the greatest fighter aircraft in the world. By the time the Spitfire Mk II began to replace it, 1566 Mk Is had been built.

The Spitfire Mk Ia is a plane known for it's manoeuvrability.

Pros:

-Outstanding turn time
-Very good at turning fights
-Good Roll rate
-Good performance at low altitude
-Good anti-fighter armament
-Better-than-average top speed
-Better-than-average rate of climb
-High octane fuel provides roughly 15% increase in engine power

Cons:

-Less-than-average energy retention
-Bad high altitude performance
-Not the best diver
-Little armour
-Fragile
-Damage to control surfaces greatly reduces combat effectiveness
-Ammo can run out quickly, if used liberally
-Lacks long range hitting power of cannons
-Pulling Negative G's can cause the carburetor(engine) to fail!

Armamento:
When within the convergence range, it has high hitting power against most fighter of its tier.

8x7.7mm Browning Mk. II machine guns153 rounds per second total output (1150 rpm x 8 / 60).Muzzle velocity 2,660 feet/second [810 m/s]. [1]300 rounds per gun, enough for just under 16 seconds of fire.The .303 was a rifle round, accurate but fairly ineffective in air combat unless in skilled hands. The calibre was chosen over the .50 as it was lighter, had a higher rate of fire and was less susceptible to jamming. However, it required an average 4500 rounds to disable an enemy aircraft [2], of which 250 rounds needed to hit (i.e. a full 2-second burst). Accurate placing of the shot was essential, as it lacked sufficient energy to cause structural damage.The design used an open bolt mechanism to allow air to flow through the barrel and prevent overheating. This worked well at lower altitudes, but caused icing at high altitude. The red canvas wing-port covering kept the gun clean and warm; later marks also ducted hot air from the engine to regulate the breech temperature. [3]RAF recommended convergence in 1939 was 400 yards [365 meters] in contrast to the Luftwaffe, with experience from the Spanish Civil War, using 200 meters (which the RAF adopted by mid-1940). Although many high scoring pilots reduced this, closing to 150 yards [137 meters] or less for an accurate kill, others ignored convergence altogether or went to a box-shot where paired guns were set to different convergences.Choice of ammunition is essential as AP and ball rounds rely on kinetic energy to cause damage, which is lost quickly in small calibre rounds. The API round will also transfer chemical energy into the target and so will be more effective on lightly armoured targets, particularly if they hit something flammable. Pure tracer rounds help targeting, especially in combat manoeuvres where lead varies, but have little penetration on contact.

É isso, galera. O kit é bem simples, apenas 2 árvores pequenas. Vou demorar um pouco pois vou reabastecer o estoque e depois iniciamos. Abraços!

Rapaz, eu comprei exatamente esse kit semana passada e estou esperando chegar para abrir o tópico da montagem.

Vai ser muito bom acompanhar tua montagem.

Valeu a pena. A qualidade é fantástica. Pena que minha câmera não é tão boa à noite. Vou tentar fazer uma foto da fuselagem pra você ver o detalhe.
