From the ground we assume , must of been quite a sight to see for him.

Wow ,cheers Andrew ,that's great !!!

Cheers P R V glad you enjoyed it !

There was also, largely based in the New Forest, in our country the B-25 Mitchells , B-26 Martin Marauders ,P47 Thunderbolts, P51 Mustangs amongst others from our American friends across the pond.Perhaps in the future we should do a vid solely for the Yanks and their aircraft.The P38 was an exceptional powerful fighter once they got the final design upgrades bolted down and it did a lot to weaken the defences on D-Day.The FONFA museum in Bransgore New Forest has some great "Gen" (general information ) and exhibits on the USAAF aswell as the RAF who flew many many ops out of the New Forest .Well worth a visit, we learnt a lot from them nice people and that led to us creating unique vids that can only be seen at their museum too !

Cheers Andrew glad you liked the vid ,we have a genuine love of the Mossies here at SpitfireCGI!

Very true ,we read that account from Des too about the Molins taking the JU88 engine completely out from it's mounting ,we also like the account of them firing the cannon and their Mosquito seemed to stop in mid flight for a split second ! A very powerful weapon indeed! Enjoy your research and the book .It is a great read.

Hello @pdwcave , narrator, animator, storyboarder ,researcher and cgi artist here ,many hats were needed to be worn to create this video and the hat that you feel is a bit wonky at this moment ,well that will be my accent ,i suppose in an ever changing world at least it's not a souless A.I narrating , i don't think anyone of us wants that rubbish :) . Have to say, so glad you enjoyed the animation and found the MK18's story engaging. It was all in tribute to Des Curtis D.F.C and that most secret squadron along with the aircrew and groundcrew from an era perhaps further away now but always rightly remembered. The human figures in them scenes will likely improve over time as SpitfireCGI produces more ww2 aviation vids. Wholeheartedly agree filmakers need to step up to tell these stories but sadly there just is not the will or the money from the big British film production companies unfortunately, so it lies to us small animation houses and budget film makers to dig deep and pick up the slack with varying degrees of success an failure . Perhaps Subscribe to stay informed on our vids and see how are story unfolds/improves while telling their stories .

Thank you.

Thank you ,that means alot !

@@SpitfireCGI Just by curiosity, how long have you been working on this project ? Best regards

@@francoisfeat1828 Happy to answer Francois ,it took 3 months to create.

Agreed ,yes in hindsight for our animation ,that would definitely give the Typhoon the best fighting chance !

Spot on Sir !!!

Very close ,after all in a way the Tempest was the name changed Typhoon mk2 with a fair few differences .The Tempest was a fantastic aircraft, everything the Typhoon (pictured here) should of been.

Not quite, although the Hawker Tornado was a British single-seat fighter aircraft that got cancelled during ww2 ,this is not that or any other domestic suction based product either ...close ..but no.

It is indeed !

Thank you ,at present we have no intention of selling our models .

You sir have taste

bruh. Spitfire was developed by Supermarine

Cheers Paul , thank you sir !

Yes very true, when Franz Stigler in his 109 escorted Charlie Brown in their beaten up B17 across the channel , a great show of compassion and another friendship formed out of the chaos of war.

@@SpitfireCGI After the War, Stigler bought a Me108. That aircraft, no longer in flying condition, is now part of the “Dangerous Skies” exhibition in the Omaka Aviation Heritage Centre. It is a world-class museum which I visit often.

Thank you Trexplorer!

Thank you very much Tracey ,well done for watching till the end which is quite a amazing tie up for the story.

Cheers Steve and thank you very much !!

Cheers,we aim to set our sights on more of this type of storytelling .

Thanks Andrew ,it was so interesting for us too to find out how they used the Molins gun in combat .618 squadron did a lot of earlier testing with these advanced secret weapons their findings would scale up to 617 Squadron in the Lancs "The Dambusters" .

Interested to hear that the precise angle of attack was to make the rounds hit below the waterline. I had heard that the .303" machine guns were often fired to help 'sight' the Molins. The recoil from the gun also slowed down the aircraft quite significantly.

@@pdwcave Flt Nav Des Curtis D.F.C explains the shell gave a red tracer trail as they fired it ,they never actually had to hit the sub they just had to make sure they fired at the right dive angle ,certainly that is no mean feat at 350+ MPH with heavy flak coming in at you but once fired into the sea the water pressure/dynamics would take care of the horizontal trajectory of the shell and it would run parallel underwater to the waters surface towards its target.They also found the aircraft did appear to briefly stop in the air when they fired its field gun !!! It is all in his book and much more ,a cracking read.

WOW ,are very first Superthanks ,an achievement indeed.Thank you for that support Andrew!!

Of course because of the ww2 aircraft.The difference here Avion is we are free to go anywhere in our 3d world,we are only limited by our own imagination, whereas war thunder everyone plays in a kind of closed space it has to as it is tied to game logic. SpitfireCGI operates with no boundaries and no limits :)

Thank you !

Thank you .

Thank you very much James!!

Thanks Greg ,we're on it and glad you liked it !

Wow, great comments PRV we appreciate all that good stuff here at SpitfireCGI .Thank you again.

Thanks again Prv.

Thank you very much and welcome aboard!

Thank you very much very kind of you to say , i'll relay it to the team !
