The Spitfire Mk.V, some say the best variant of this aircraft.

Here's a Mk.V with clipped wings, this gave a faster roll rate and more maneuverability at low altitudes

The Spitfire Mk.V is a very important aircraft for the new Italian air force born after the 8 september 1943.
in the august 1944, the "aeronautica italiana Cobelligerante" recive 53 old Spit. Mk5 the italian tecnich can repare and use only 33 of them
all these aircraft went to equip the 20° Gruppo 51° stormo. in 4 november 1944 they made the first combat mission...

By the way I forgot to tell the italian Spitfire Mk.V was discarded from a jugoslav wing, trained on a italian airfiel next Canne (Puglia -South Italy - Canne famous for Roman Vs. Carthage battle)  :-wave

After some correction here I am with final layout. Now from this I could develop various models. Santino- third image of Italian Spitfires show some dark color over it. What is this about?

I hope this 3 view color draw can help you...
all the italian spit was very very very used... (remember that aircraft was surplus aircraft discarted from the Raf and Jugoslave Air force...) the colour awas very worn and dirty...
