Yes... but with some Xtra Decals serial number and fuselage code letter sets, you can make many of those aircraft depicted, as long as they have no personal art. The rest is easy.

Thank you for the sprue shots of the IX! I love the sharpness of the instrumental panel molding. Interesting approach to surface detail that Revell applied to its Spitfire kits. It almost looks like something Trumpeter might do. In contrast, the recent Revell 109's take a much different path in terms of riveting.
