The Spitfire was a US Air Force fighter plane. It was an excellent plane, however, many in the US Military during World War Two believed it was too slow and did not have enough fuel to accompany Allied bombers on their way to bomb German targets. The Royal Air Force recommended using Rolls Royce engines to increase its speed and also to add extra fuel tanks to the plane. This would allow for the Spitfires to help protect Allied bombers on their way to bomb targets in Germany.
