Illustrating the strength and adaptability of its basic design, the Supermarine Spitfire saw constant development throughout the Second World War, with over 20,000 aircraft eventually being produced in 24 different marks. The Mark V variant was actually something of a ‘stop-gap’ upgrade from the aircraft which fought during the Battle of Britain, but with 6,487 produced, it would prove to be the most heavily produced mark of Spitfire.

The Supermarine Spitfire Mk.Vb was the most widely produced variant of the Mark V entering service with the RAF in early 1941 being the first common variant to be fitted with the 'B' wing comprising two 20mm cannons and four .303in Browning machine guns.
