In addition to the updated tropical models, update 1.77 “Advancing Storm” will introduce two further modifications of the fifth major Spitfire variant, namely; the standard, non-tropical versions B and C. These, in comparison to the ones already present in the game, do not possess special modifications that optimize their use in tropical conditions. One such modification and the most notable one, is the dust filter located under the aircraft’s nose. This feature is removed from the non-tropical versions and in turn, offers a slight increase in performance due to the savings in weight and reduced drag. The good old Mk.Vb/trop will also appear as a new premium vehicle in the Italian aviation tree at rank III.

Meet the new and improved Spitfire Mk.V models in the aerial battles of War Thunder with the upcoming update 1.77 “Advancing Storm”. Don’t forget to stay tuned to the news to keep up to date with the latest developments within the War Thunder universe. See you in battle!
