The Mk. XVI was a late-war evolution of the iconic British Spitfire, introduced in 1944. The "Bubbletop" canopy provided pilots with vastly improved visibility in combat. With a top speed of 676 km/h and a mixed armament of 20mm cannons and 7.7mm machine guns, the Mk. XVI was a formidable escort and reconnaissance aircraft. It served with distinction across various fronts during the final stages of World War II.
