Spitfire LF MKIX: 66.6% Spaded LETHALITY! (War Thunder Narration #shorts) *RE-EDITED*
RE-EDIT INFORMATION
_______________________
I decided to pull the original edit of this video, as it contained too many errors. I also felt it had too much unnecessary profanity. Instead of saying 'Mother F**KER', I say, 'Mother Fluffa'. I felt this was more appropriate for this type of video. I also re-edited the text to match the voice-acting, as well as adding additional voice-acting near the end of the video.
I also adjusted the sound volume on the music, sound effects from the game, and the voice-acting sound. This was done to help separate and differentiate all 3 sound bits for a much clearer, overall sound.

MATCH DETAILS
_________________
At the time of this match, I still had remaining parts to research on this plane. This was around my 10th match with this model of Spitfire, before I got a match decent enough to post. I had 12 of the 18 items researched.
I did get a, 'Last Man Standing' Match with this Model of Spitfire, on my 2nd match with it that I may still post. However, I have 9 British #shorts videos that I can RE-EDIT to Full Screen, and post them in another #shorts COMPILATION VIDEO.
ITEMS LEFT TO RESEARCH
___________________________
1) 150 Octane Fuel
2) Cover
3) New 12mm MG's
4) SBC mark 25
5) Mk.II Year 1942 20mm Cannons
6) Mk.II Year 1943 20 mm Cannons

SPIT FIRE LF MKIX DESCRIPTION
_________________________________
The Spitfire LF Mk IX is a rank IV British fighter with a battle rating of 5.3 (AB), 5.7 (RB), and 5.0 (SB). It was introduced in Update 1.35.
The Spitfire LF Mk IX is very much a short range, point interceptor fighter and the stand out fighter in the mid Spitfire line-up. It features an exceptional rate of climb, whilst still retaining the manoeuvrability of its early lineage. The LF Mk IX is considered by most to be the perfect Spitfire due to its balanced all round performance and impressive statistics. The last of the Merlin-engined Spitfires before progressing on to the Griffon powered variants, it has the perfect balance of turning performance (second only to its Japanese counterparts) as well as its "Boom and Zoom" capability that becomes more possible with later model Spitfires.
_________________________________________________________________________
Pros:
Supreme rate of climb that will rival that of the later Griffon Spitfires and most late war props (46.7 m/s in AB, 31.8m/s in RB/SB when maxed out, beating the F8F-1B at altitudes below 7 km)
Excellent acceleration from a standing start due to the boost configuration
Exceptional manoeuvrability at all altitudes
Decent energy retention.
M2 Browning .50 cal machine guns are more powerful than the old .303 Brownings
Has access to 150 Octane Fuel will increase your engine power by a large margin
Cons:
Tendency to break wings its during high speed manoeuvres
Sub average roll rate can make the plane suffer in tight scissors
Limited dive rate, moderate parasitic drag
Limited ammo capacity
Due to high wing loading, even slight damage to the wings can impact performance negatively
Poor top speed due to high parasitic drag compared to engine power
Since it is an 'LF (low-altitude fighter)' Spitfire, this Spitfire's performance suffers at high altitude
Poor ground attack capatibility
