Two Supermarine Seafire naval fighters fly in formation at UK Warbirds 2023: the LF9E G‑RYIX in RAF colouring and the LF16E G‑PBIX named That’s All Folks Porky II with USAF display paint. These carrier‑adapted Spitfire derivatives were typically powered by Rolls‑Royce Merlin V‑12 engines driving multi‑blade propellers and featured structural changes for arrested landings and carrier deck operations alongside wing‑mounted armament.
