The “fishtail” exhaust system, characterized by its distinctive “fish tail” ends, was widely used on later Spitfires, especially from the mid-point of WWII onwards. It ensured better exhaust gas flow, positively impacting aircraft performance and giving the plane a knightly, “combat-ready” look. Supermarine Spitfire Mk. V aircraft with these exhausts were used by the British air forces on all European fronts, in North Africa, as well as on Sicily and Malta, where they fought against German and Italian aircraft. These planes became particularly famous during operations such as “Torch” (the Allied landings in North Africa) and for defending the Mediterranean region.
