Despite the Spitfire's status as perhaps the most renowned combat aircraft in history, with over 20,000 units produced, no official two-seat training versions were created during World War II. This post-war development has allowed the current fleet of Spitfire T.9s to play a crucial role in preserving the legacy of this remarkable aircraft.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\u003csection\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Inside\u003c\/h2\u003ePlastic model kit, instruction sheet, paint layout sheet and decals.\u003c\/section\u003e\u003csection\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSchemes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA05143 - Supermarine Spitfire Tr.9, B Flight, Irish Air Corps \/ An tAerchór, Baldonnel Aerodrome, Dublin, Republic of Ireland\/Poblacht na hÉireann, 1951.
