The Supermarine Spitfire Mk.IX and Mk.XVI are developed versions of the famous British fighter that entered service during World War II. The Mk.IX was introduced into combat service in 1942 as a response to the growing capabilities of German fighters, especially the Focke-Wulf Fw 190. The Mk.XVI is a later version, introduced in 1944 and equipped with an American-made Packard Merlin 266 engine.
