About the aircraft

  • is the perfect all-around fighter aircraft in and around rank IV. This Spitfire variant has a fantastic climb rate, capable of reaching high altitudes before any enemy presence is felt. With excellent maneuverability, this Spitfire certainly packs the punch against any other aircraft at this rank.
  • is great at boom ‘n’ zoom attacks, thanks to its ability to rapidly climb, and impressive speed!

To celebrate, we’ve also got a special decal to commemorate this day.

When: From September 15th (12:00 GMT) until September 18th (12:00 GMT).
