🎯 How it flies
The Spitfire sits in the middle of the fleet, with roll rate as its strongest trait. It has no glaring weakness, but it dominates in no single area either — positioning decides the fight, not the airframe. 125 HP is thin — a few hits are lethal. Come in unseen, strike, break clean; a drawn-out close-range duel goes against you. Gun damage is on the low side — you need to hold the target in your sights longer, which forces you to close in and stay locked on the enemy's six.
Tier: Starter · Origin: 🇬🇧 British
