XVI Bubbletop was one of the variants of the legendary British Spitfire fighter plane used during World War II. Mk. XVI was a modification introduced in 1944, which was characterized by a spherical-shaped cabin (Bubbletop). It significantly improved the pilot's visibility. The plane achieved a high maximum speed of approximately 676 km/h. The armament included two 20mm machine guns and four 7.7mm machine guns. Spitfire Mk. XVI was used mainly as an escort and reconnaissance fighter, taking part in operations on various war fronts. Its improvements, especially in performance and visibility, made it an effective means of air combat late in WWII.
