Post subject: Which nation?
|
 |
|
Hello guys,
i dont know if this is the correct forums for my question, but i hope you can help me anyway.
I was looking around in ebay for some new planes when i came around this spitfire. I need 2 new ones anyway and i have already got one with british insignia from the same manufacturer.
I like the camo of this spit and there would be an additional japanese ki-84 in the package - for 5 dollars quite a good deal. But which nation roundels are on this spitfire?

....This first print contains 12 British roundels as used by the Royal Flying Corps, Royal Air Force, Canadian Air Force and the Royal Canadian Air Force from 1914 to 1946....
Cool link, thanx! So it is a roundel used by the British and the Canadians until they got their own roundels in 1946.[/url]

Its Australian Spitfire.
aout 500 were used.
The red in the middle of the roundel to stop confusion over Japanes markings. This one will be a Pacific theatre aircraft.
