You asked another spitfire question earlier about 5 blade props. are you looking A particular spitfire or one to modify? Some more info may help us help you. The reason I ask this is only 2 MK.XX spitfires were ever produced and they were retrofitted expermental models, I doubt any models exist of this. A spitfire XXII is a XXI with a bubble canopy and a cut down rear fuselage, Both could be equipt with Griffon 61 power plant meaning they would have a 5 blade prop. griffin 85 powered spits would have a six blade countraprop on them. If I knew exactly what you were hunting for I could better tell you if a kit was ever made of it.

Try Squadron.com for newer models and ebay for out of production kits

The only offering I see new are the same 2 already pointed out in the other post in 1/48 scale. Nothing in 1/32, and a few in 1/72. I’m sure other companies have done late model spits in the past if you looking something else. Finding them might be difficult.

Thanks for taking the time to enlighten me on Spitfires. I would like the bubble canopy and the 5 blade prop. So, what models fit these specs.

Thanks: Peter

Czechmaster have recently released a resin kit in 1/72 for the Spitfire F.Mk 22/24.

I also found a resin kit for a MK22/24 from Legato Kits.
