D 1/48 E 14 NÁVOD / INSTRUCTION 28 12 25 23 9 Seafire Mk.II “Torch & Avalanche" C F CZ SH48102 Na přelomu let 1939 a 1940 chtěla Admiralita objednat námořní verzi Spitfiru se sklopnými křídly. Projekt Supermarine 13 Type 338 počítal s motorem Griffon, křídla se měla skládat podél trupu. Objednávka na 50 kusů byla zrušena, Velká Británie v té době potřebovala hlavně Spitfiry Mk.I. Námořní piloti se dočkali Seafiru (jak byla navalizovaná verze Spitfiru nazvána) se sklopným křídlem až mnohem později. V roce 1941 byl prvních 48 kusů Spitfirů Mk.VB upraveno montáží přistávacího háku a námořní radiostanice na tzv. Hooked Spitfire. Ty sloužily pouze k výcviku. Další stroje, kompletně vybavené pro službu na moři a upravené z verze Spitfire Mk.VB se označovaly Seafire Mk.IB. S přechodem výroby B Spitfirů na verzi MK.VC se objevila i nová verze Seafiru, označená Mk.IIC. Podle verze použitého motoru se stroje dále rozlišovaly na stroje pro nízké výšky L. Mk.IIC a výškovější Mk.IIC či stíhací průzkumné LR Mk.IIC. Tyto verze nasadilo Royal Navy jak při vyloděních v Africe a Itálii, tak v akcích v Atlantiku a posléze i v Indickém oceánu. Jako stíhačka byl A Seafire Mk.II výkonný, omezoval ho ale krátký dolet a křehký podvozek. Operace na letadlových lodích také komplikovalo pevné křídlo. Proto byly Seafiry Mk.II postupně nahrazovány Seafiry Mk.III se sklopným křídlem. 14 TTD Seafire LF.Mk.III Rozpětí: 11,23 m, délka: 9,21 m, max. rychlost /u mořské hladiny: 533 km/h, v 1830 m: 560 km/h, výstup do 1525 m: 1,9 min. , dolet 825 km, praktický dostup: 7 315 m F C 5 C C 11 D EN In the break of 1939 and 1940 Admiralty decided to order naval version of Spitfire that should feature folding wings. 5 Supermarine Type 338 Project was to be powered by Griffon engine and the wings should fold up along the fuselage. The order for 50 aircraft was cancelled since Great Britain hardly needed every Spitfire Mk.I. Naval pilots finally received 13 their Seafires (code name for the naval version of Spitfire) with folding wings much later. The first 48 Spitfire Mk.VBs was modified by addition of landing hook and naval radio set into so called Hooked Spitfires. These machines served for training purposes only. The onwards machines were fully equipped for carrier service. These machines were modified from Spitfire Mk.VB and designated Seafire Mk.IB. When the production had been switched to Mk.VC also new version of Seafire, this time designated Mk.IIC was originated. According to the engine used, particular versions were designated L Mk.IIC for low altitude fighter, standard altitude Mk.IIC and fighter reconnaissance LR Mk.IIC. Royal Navy deployed these versions during landings in Africa and Italy but also during Atlantic and later Indian Ocean missions. F Seafire Mk.II was powerful fighter but limited in range and by fragile undercarriage. Also, the carrier handling was limited by non folding wing and therefore version Mk.II was subsequently replaced by Mk.III with folding wing. 8 22 27 12 26 F Matná Černá Flat Black Seafire LF.Mk.III H12/ C33 Wingspan: 11.23 m, Length: 9.21 m, Max.

When the land -based Hawker Hurricane was successfully converted into the carrier -based "Sea Hurricane", thought was given to repeating the process for the ubiquitous Supermarine Spitfire fighter series that had carved a name for itself in the Battle of Britain.
