Re: Spitfire F.21 losses 1945
It was indeed an OA-10.
Do keep in mind that the Canadian-built OA-10s had a lighter structure than PBYs and were more limited as to where they could land on the ocean. That's why the Navy was finally willing to let the USAAF have them, years after the USAAF first encountered the ASR Walrus and said "we should have something like that".
