Osprey Modelling Manual 18 examines Reginald Mitchell's classic Spitfire - the only RAF type in continuous production throughout WWII (over 20,000 were built in some 40 major variations), and an airframe adaptable as a fighter, fighter-bomber and PR aircraft.

This book provides all the details needed to model the main Spitfire Marks - the Mks V and IX - and other Spitfire variants. Includes a full roundup of the models available on the market, details of where you can see the real thing, a select bibliography, and survey of websites of interest.
