THE SUPERMARINE SPITFIRE

 

Brainchild of R. J. Mitchell

The Spitfire was designed

As a short-range,

High-performance

Interceptor aircraft

The Supermarine Spitfire

Was the perfect flying machine

With its elliptical wings

And Rolls-Royce Merlin engine

It was fast and manoeuvrable

Which helped it dominate the skies

During the Battle of Britain
