Combat Photography - DCS Spitfire LF Mk. IX Operation Epsom Campaign


A short mission in the DCS: Spitfire LF Mk. IX, just to kick the tires.

Just a quick screenshot I wanted to share. In this image, I have lost my way to Caen and ended up near Le Havre. This is from the awesome campaign DLC by Bunyap. The missions are vicious. The Spitfire is a beauty. The weather is atrocious. Unfortunately so are the in game frame rates. Maybe is time to upgrade my rig.

Cheers,

The Spitfire is a brilliant module although I'm still waiting for modders to make better sound of its Merlin engine. The default one is not exactly what the real engine sounds like. It is tricky during take off end landing due to narrow undercarriage and non-lockable tail wheel, although not as hard as Bf-109, which tries to kill you every time.

What is amazing about the Spit is that it is both very agile, when you need it in combat, and stable in level flight.
