The Spitfire was one of the best fighter aircraft to see service during the Second World War, and just over 20,000 were built of Reginald Joseph Mitchell's design.
A twin-engined monoplane bomber, the Harrow was built in small numbers and entered Royal Air Force service in January 1937, remaining in service until May 1945.
During the Battle of Britain the standard camouflage for the fuselage and upper surfaces of Fighter Command aircraft would remain the same throughout the battle. It would be the undersides of the aircraft that would be subject
to change.
