Seafire XV Fleet Air Arm Skins uploaded to HSD Skin Downloader

[ICDP]

Hi all, I have created two post war Seafire skins based on the Battle of Normandy Spitfire XIV.  Both skins are available on Haluter's Skin Downloader (HSD).

 

Search on HSD under artist ICDP, or look for the Seafire Fleet Air Arm Skin Pack in the list.

 

The Supermarine Seafire Mk.XV was the first Griffon powered version of the Seafire to be produced, entering service just too late to reach the front line during the Second World War. The Seafire Mk.XV borrowed features from four versions of the Spitfire. It had the fuselage of the Spitfire V as used on the Seafire III, the wing-root fuel tanks from the Spitfire IX, the enlarged fin and rudder and retractable tail wheel of the Spitfire VIII and the Griffon engine installation of the Spitfire XII.

 

Seafire F. Mk XV Ja-109 of 1831 Squadron, Royal Naval Volunteer Reserve

 

Seafire F. Mk XV White 122, No 806 Squadron Fleet Air Arm, 16th Carrier Air Froup, HMS Glory, September 1946.
