>>27703866There were 38 different marks of Spitfire and a huge number of sub variants.
There were more than 20,000 built and something like 3,000 seafires IIRC.
It fought in the most pivotal air war during WW2 and while the hurricane killed more aircraft - the spitfire engaged fighters allowing the hurricane to focus on bombers.
Easily the best Allied fighter by a considerable margin.
Best axis aircraft pretty much comes down to what you like - there are no real criteria. I'd pick the Zero for its dominance in the early war.
My favorite aircraft of the war was the Mosquito because i am a bongaloid who loves how fast and versatile it was.
