Sptfire Mk.XIV type confusions?

[jollyjack]

I really get confused when making skins for various Spitfires. But i found an enlightening post here on the MkXIV.

For us Spitty fans who paid (already in Early Access at least i did) for the XIVe collector plane we would surely appreciate a razorback XIVc Especially since the XIV now came came free with Normandy .... OOPS mistake IXc is free ..

mk iXc is free with BoN

 

change from bubble to razerback is big enough to justifie some price for it so i doubt they would make it free even if they get bathered to make it

 

if they learned anything from IXc , they should aim to fill in early model spits gaps not late war ones

ah, mistake again ... soooooooooo many spits!

If you buy the Spitfire XIV (razorback) collector, you get both the XIVc (0,303cal) and the XIVe (0,50cal) gun variants.

Hi .. Seems the XIV comes with Normandy, and the XIVe is the collector. Your link talks abous XIVs and no razorback.

Now i am really confused. In Haluter's listing:

Both the razorback XIV and the teardrop XIV are collector planes, both having their own unique modifications.

They were introduced at different time periods though, the razroback XIV entered the WW2 arena during the beginning of 1944, while the teardrop XIV became operational in the spring of 1945.

 

"IL-2 Sturmovik: Battle of Normandy - Premium Edition" has the razorback XIV inculded, the teardrop version is a standalone collectors plane only.

Indeed, just checked the skin viewer, thanks. I'll made skins with the template XIV and it's razor backed. Me dumbo LoL.

I bought Early Access Normandy Premium BTW. And the Collector version.
