The Supermarine Spitfire
The Supermarine Spitfire is primarily used by the Royal Air Force. It was the only British aircraft to be produced throughout the Second World War that was not discontinued after the end of the war. It had a big role in fighting the German air force during the Battle of Britain. It was also the primary fighter plane in the European, Pacific, and Mediterranean theaters of war. It is still one of the most admired and popular planes among aviation enthusiasts.

The Hughes H-4 Hercules
There are monster trucks on land, but what is its air force equivalent? In aerospace, this sets the bar for so-called monster planes. The Hughes H-4 Hercules was created for transatlantic flights in the Second World War. It was not finished in time to do its intended job, however. It only went on a single brief flight, but it is still the biggest flying boat. It also has the widest wingspan of any aircraft ever made.
