The Supermarine Spitfire was one of the most popular single-seat fighters used by the RAF and the Allies during the Second World War. It gave rise to a diversification and multiplicity of versions unprecedented in aviation history. https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supermarine_SpitfireThe Airspeed Horsa is a World War II assault glider. After the GAL 49 Hamilcar, it was the largest cargo glider used by Allied forces during the Second World War, and the most produced, with a total of 3,644 examples.
