About This Content The British Spitfire is one of the most iconic fighter aircraft of World War II. Most famous for its role in the Battle of Britain, the Spitfire served as Britain's primary fighter during the entirety of the war. The Spitfire combines graceful lines, eye-watering dogfight performance, and heavy firepower in its later variants. For DCS World, we are happy to bring you the most accurate and realistic simulation of the Spitfire LF Mk IX ever created.The Spitfire Mk IX was originally developed as a stopgap measure as a response to the appearance of the Focke-Wulf FW 190A.The Spitfire IX is powered by the Merlin 66. This engine produces its best performance at slightly lower altitudes than the older Merlin 61. Spitfires equipped with this engine were designated LF Mk IX. This was the most numerous version of the Mk IX, with 4,010 produced. The majority of Mk IXs of all types used the standard "c" wing, which would often carry two 20mm cannon and four .303in machine guns.The Mk IX was a significant improvement on the Mk V. It had a top speed of 409 mph at 28,000 feet, an increase of 40 miles per hour. Its service ceiling rose from 36,200 feet to 43,000 feet. It could climb at 4,000 feet per minute. In July 1942, an early Mk IX was flown against a captured Fw 190A, and the two aircraft were discovered to have very similar capabilities. The RAF had its answer to the Fw 190 problem.The Mk IX replaced the Mk V from June 1942. It allowed the RAF to go back onto the offensive in occupied Europe, and resume the "circus", "ramrod" and "rodeo" raids. Its first combat success came on 30 July 1942, when a Spitfire Mk IX shot down a Fw 190. Amongst other notable achievements, the Mk IX took part in the highest altitude combat of the Second World War, when it intercepted a Ju 86R at 43,000 feet over Southampton on 12 September 1942. On 5 October 1944 Spitfire Mk IXs of 401 Squadron were the first allied aircraft to shoot down an Me 262 Jet. The Mk IX remained in service until the end of the war, even after the appearance of the Griffon powered Mk XIV.Please note that this DLC uses Steam Keys instead of Starforce keys.

Plain and simple. I have quite a few modules for DCS, but I only had one WW2 plane before I got the Spitfire, and it was the P-51 Mustang. Don't get me wrong, the Mustang is a great plane, but what makes the Spitfire shine for me is it's incredible turn rate. I can pull VERY hard turns without fear of stalling or spinning out of control, unlike the Mustang. It has decent speed, but I have found that it's actually better to have a plane that can fly slowly in dogfights. I highly recommend this plane. If you are getting into DCS and have to choose juse ONE WW2 plane, get the Spitfire.. it is Imposible to control on the ground with keyboard, so i went out and bought rudder pedals for it, hoping that was the cause. What a waste of money. Ive tryed every setting and followed several guides to take off on youtube and all it wants to to is ether zig zag, or skid into a wing slapper. Massivly dissapointed will never buy another prop aircraft on dcs. Apparently setting up modifiers with 3rd party software so you can make and seprate the toe brakes is the way forward. Save your money for the F16... in game settings to help take off are a joke also.
