The reconnaisance Spitfire PRXIXs were unarmed but could fly at 370mph at 40,000 feet (with pressurised cockpits) and had a range of 1500 miles. Mk XIX Spitfires represent the 'top end' of development of the Spitfire and indeed of piston engine aircraft, demonstrating the incredible development potential of the original Spitfire design.
