FS2004/FSX Spitfire Mk v Daimler Benz. Spitfire Vb serial EN830 / NX-X fell into German hands late in 1942. It crash landed on November 18th 1942 and was captured in good enough condition to be flown in November 1943, with black crosses in place of RAF roundels, to Rechlin for testing. After the Merlin engine was removed, it was discovered that the Spitfires front fuselage cross-section was very close to that of the standard Bf.110G's engine cowling. A new engine support was designed, and a standard DB 605A-1 engine was mounted to the firewall. Performance was found to be much better than the Standard MkV and Bf109F. Tested in FS2004 / FSX / FSX Acceleration. Gmax model by A.F. Scrub.
