		<description><![CDATA[Probably the most famous British aircraft of all time, the great fighter played a secondary role in the Battle of Britain to the less glamourous Hawker Hurricane. But the Spitfire&#8217;s elegant looks, excellent handling characteristics, and huge production give it a unique place in aviation history.

It also served as a trainer, and in secondary theaters, notably in German East Africa where an H.F.22 variant participated in the hunt for the Konigsberg. Top Speed: 65 m.p.h.
