About
The F Mk XIVe is Britain’s top-tier Spitfire in Wings of Glory (Tier 3, Level 7), featuring the powerful Griffon engine. It's the final Spitfire iteration in-game, bridging the gap before jets.
Playstyle
This Spit combines energy-fighter tactics with traditional Spit turn-fighting. It’s best flown using its higher top speed and climb, then diving to strike. It out-turns many opponents but should avoid dogfights above optimal speed—switch to straight passing when required.
Pros and Cons
Pros
➕ Strong thrust-to-weight and higher top speed (Griffon upgrade)
➕ Maintains excellent turn capability for its class
ons
➖ Lower optimal speed forces use of energy tactics
➖ Poor energy retention in prolonged vertical maneuvers

Trivia
