When were spitfires built?

Answer 1

They were invented in 1928 and continually developed until 1937. This excerpt comes from Wikipedia but I put the link for you below. Supermarine Spitfire

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaMcKinstry 2007, pp. 6, 143.

"The Spitfire was designed as a short-range performance interceptor aircraft by R. J. Mitchell, chief designer at Supermarine Aviation Works (since 1928 a subsidiary of Vickers-Armstrongs). He continued to refine the design until his death from cancer in 1937, whereupon his colleague Joseph Smith became chief designer. The Spitfire's elliptical wing had a thin cross-section, allowing a higher top speed than the Hawker Hurricane and several contemporary fighters.Speed was seen as essential to carry out the mission of home defence against enemy bombers."

Answer 2

In the Battle of Britain during WW2

It was also used in every conflict throughout the war right up until the end of WW2 in Japan. Along with the Hurricane these were the only Allied planes to be actively engaged in every theatre of the war from the start to the very end. Spitfires were used as carrier borne planes in the Pacific until its offshoot the Seafire joined in.

Answer 3

About l939. it evolved out of the earlier racing Supermarine S-6 seaplanes of all things, and had the elliptical wing. Mainstay of the RAF fighter command, the craft went through a good many marks and models- and this adaptability in production was one of the craft"s advantages- compared with the more standardized Messerschmidt Me-l09, though both were certainly mass-produced craft- there were different mods and marks of Spitfire- with differing armament fuel tanks, etc.
