HISTORY ASPECTS:
The Supermarine Spitfire Mk.Vb Trop, serial number ER570, was a specially modified variant of the iconic British fighter aircraft, designed for operations in the harsh desert environment of North Africa. Assigned to the 4th Fighter Squadron, 52nd Fighter Group of the Mediterranean Allied Coastal Air Force (MACAF), this aircraft played a critical role in the air war over the Mediterranean in August 1943. The "Trop" designation indicated the installation of a Vokes air filter to protect the engine from sand and dust, making it well-suited for operations in the North African and Sicilian campaigns.
The 52nd Fighter Group, originally equipped with P-40 Warhawks, transitioned to Spitfires to provide improved dogfighting capabilities against the Luftwaffe and Italian Air Force. Operating from bases in Tunisia and later Sicily, pilots of the 4th FS flew the Mk.Vb Trop in escort missions, air superiority roles, and ground attack operations. During the summer of 1943, ER570 and its squadron supported the Allied invasion of Sicily (Operation Husky), engaging German and Italian fighters while covering advancing Allied troops. The Spitfire’s superior maneuverability made it a formidable opponent in combat, often clashing with Bf 109s and Fw 190s.
By August 1943, the Mediterranean air war was shifting towards Italy, and the Spitfires of the 52nd FG played a crucial role in maintaining air superiority over key strategic targets. The Spitfire Mk.Vb Trop remained in frontline service until it was gradually replaced by newer variants, but its contributions in the North African and Sicilian theaters cemented its legacy as one of the most effective Allied fighter aircraft of World War II. The experience gained by American pilots flying Spitfires would later prove invaluable when transitioning to P-51 Mustangs for long-range escort duties over Europe.
This 1:48 scale model is a must-have for collectors and history enthusiasts. Featuring detailed camouflage, authentic squadron markings, and the signature tropical air filter modification, this replica beautifully captures the essence of one of the most legendary fighters of World War II. Whether displayed in a collection or used for historical dioramas, this meticulously crafted Spitfire serves as a tribute to the bravery and skill of the pilots who flew it in combat.

A questionable call...
Format: Paperback
In the world of prophetic literature, when I encounter books with numerous testimonials about its importance, I see red flags stating to fly, and I am warned of a man-made agenda, rather than a movement of God. Joseph Z (or his publisher, Hamilton House) have incorporated no fewer than 33 testimonials from pastors and teachers throughout the prophetic movement to life up praises to this writing. (Methinks they doth need to advertise too much?) However, it IS well written, and you will not be bored as you go through the material. I have found that the quiet leading of the Holy Spirit is a much more convincing move for me to read a publication than a cacophony of voices shouting its praises to the rooftops. True to form, I find Joseph Z, his publication, and his views, though heavily laced with scripture, to be aligned with the calling and agenda of the Christian Nationalists and their widespread movement in the US, today. If you see a calling to take over and change the world for Christ before HE comes (especially from the standpoint of the culture and government of the US), then this writing will appeal to you and support your supposed calling. The idea of an 'Elijah company' calling in the Body of Christ is always purported to come from a new revelation, simply because that concept can't be supported within scripture and its traditional interpretation. The new calling is simply an attempt to justify taking the gospel hostage to a political agenda of 'improving' our country, government, or culture. This concept is outside the traditional bounds of scripture, hence its support by a new group of prophets and/or apostles, with a 'new' message to the Body. I, too, believe that scripture confirms that Elijah will come to prepare the way of the Lord before HE returns in these last days. However, I see that person to be a single individual, as was Elijah in the Old Testament, and John the Baptist, in the New. I don't see a company (plural) being called into this position, nor do I see a mandate for the Body of Christ to occupy any earth-based land or system in anticipation of the Lord's return. Israel was promised an earthly Land; the Body of Christ never was, and no matter how many voices are raised up to declare otherwise, it isn't true. I will not stand in the way of those who follow this movement, but I will not be joining them. I'm content to let the Lord work out HIS plan in HIS time and in HIS way.
