Spitfire Firepower - a photo on Flickriver

Spitfire Firepower

            A shot taking in the the cannon of a "c" wing set up on this Mk 5c Spitfire AR501 . Our photo workshop with this Spitfire gave us the chance to get into and upto the plane that was not usually possible .
  A little more info on the " c " wing configuration :-
The “c” wing appeared in October 1941. It was a “universal” wing that could take eight .303in machine guns, four 20mm cannon or two 20mm cannon and four machine guns. Each cannon now had 120 rounds, compared to the 60 of the “b” wing. This wing was used on the majority of Mk V Spitfires, normally with the combined cannon and machine guns configuration. The “c” wing also had the capability to carry two 250lb bombs under the wings, or one 500lb bomb under the fuselage. If machine guns were used, they were used in the outboard position. The “a” and “b” wings were not used after the Spitfire V.
