Three Battle Mark Is, K9353 ?HA-J?, K9324 ?HA-B? and K9325 ?HA-D?, of No. 218 Squadron RAF, based at Auberives-sur-Suippes, in flight over northern France. K9325 went missing during an attack on enemy troops near St Vith on 11 May 1940, and K9353 was shot down north of Bouillon the following day. K9324 survived the Battle of France to serve with the RAAF until 1944.

Single seat Battle? That the Grand Tourer?

Gotta like em Thicc if you like the Battle.
Big ol' girl. Massive for a single seater. That Merlin had work cut out.
