This book is the third in a new series called 'Spotlight On' and presents specially commissioned detailed colour profiles of the celebrated Supermarine Spitfire V. The Mk V was produced in greater numbers than any other single mark of Spitfire. It was the main version of the fighter during the summer of 1941, when it held a material advantage over the German Bf 109 in RAF counterattacks over France. Many versions and different air forces are shown in the book, including the markings and camouflage patterns from different theatres of World War II. The book also features one huge fold-out colour profile, 76 cm (30 inches) long. A Uniquely illustrated resource for World War Two aviation modellers.
