The Soviet Union was very interested in Spitfire Mk. VC fighters. They were requested in March 1942. Six squadrons with 160 pilots and 700 ground personnel were expected to arrive with WS 18 convoy on April 15 1942. But despite Churchill’s promises they did not arrive that year. Only in January 1943 first of the 150 shipped Spitfires Mk. Vb landed at the Soviet aerodromes. One of these machines with the serial EP 210 is the subject of this model.
