These all exist as mods. Actually, some of the Mk VIII and Mk IX variants exist as stock planes. Agreed that it would be nice to have the Griffon-engined Spitfires in the game.

The only problem with the Spitfire series is that there were more than 20 variants and many sub-variants, I think that there were something like 100 different versions in all. That's even more variants than the Bf-109 series!
If we model every single type of war time service Spitfire it'd probably be pretty close in number to the Bf109 variations that saw service from the Spanish Civil War and up. Two very prolifically upgraded fighters for sure!
