US needs a good turn fighter with decent ground support capabilities, and this thing can carry bombs too: Spitfire LF Mk IX | War Thunder Wiki
Just give its 250 lb bomb back and put it br3 and it will be fine.
May as well put a bomb on the 109F4 for balance too, noone ever uses that…
At this point, it’s truly bizarre decision to introduce new plane with no CAS capabilities into the game.
In their current states, both main rewards are pure collectibles. There’s literally no reason to play them. It’s not going to be fun for you.
Not to mention, they should have made this spitfire tech tree in the first place. But whatever.
You should make at least one of these spitfires useful in this game, considering they were one of the most famous fighter series in ww2.
No, a single 100 kg bomb not worth it
I want everyone to understand that this plane outperforms dedicated german fighters on BR5
You could put it in BR5 straight away and it still would be actually good air-to-air wise. It’s just people prefer CAS but putting anything more than 100lb bomb on this thing makes it a best prop plane in the game/second best after Ki-84-Ko (depending on the size of the bomb)
