I love the Spitfire as an aircraft and a legend, but the simple fact of the matter is that had as much to do with the outcome of the Battle of Britain as Ava Braun's skirt. If the entire RAF had been equipped with Hurricanes, and not a single Spitfire seen combat until the fall, the result would have been exactly the same. The UK had numerous advantages over the Germans during this battle. All of them combined to create the outcome we now know as history.
