  • Supermarine Aviation Works Ltd. byl britský letecký výrobce se sídlem ve ve městě Southampton. Vzniklo zde množství hydroplánů a slavná stíhačka Supermarine Spitfire. Společnost založil v roce 1913 Noel Pemberton Billing pod názvem Pemberton-Billing Ltd. se zaměřením na námořní letadla. Vyrobila také několik prototypů, čtyřplošníků, k sestřelování Zeppelinů – Supermarine P.B.29 a Supermarine Nighthawk. V roce 1916 se stal Pemberton-Billing členem parlamentu, firmu prodal a její název se změnil na Supermarine Aviation Works Ltd. Letouny společnosti dosáhly úspěchů ve Schneiderově poháru, např. v letech 1927, 1929 a 1931. V roce 1928 převzal společnost Supermarine koncert Vickers-Armstrongs jako Supermarine Aviation Works (Vickers) Ltd a v roce 1938 byla letecká část společnosti Vickers-Armstrongs reorganizována, čímž vznikla Vickers-Armstrongs (Aircraft) Ltd. Supermarine nadále pokračovala v konstrukci, stavbě a obchodu pod svým vlastním jménem. První „pozemní“ letoun firmy Supermarine, který se dostal do výroby, byl slavný a úspěšný Spitfire. Spolu se starším Hurricanem byl Spitfire hlavním stíhačem velitelství Fighter Command, který bojoval během bitvy o Británii v létě 1940. Mezi další letouny z této doby patří Seafire (námořní verze Spitfiru). Dále Spiteful a Seafang – nástupci Spitfiru a Seafiru, a také létající člun Walrus. Po válce zde vznikl první proudový stíhač Royal Navy Supermarine Attacker, vyvinutý ze Spitfiru. Attacker byl následován strojem Supermarine Swift a posledním letounem firmy Supermarine – Supermarine Scimitar. V roce 1960 se mateřská společnost Vickers-Armstrongs stala součástí British Aircraft Corporation a značka Supermarine zanikla. (cs)

  • Supermarine was a British aircraft manufacturer that is most famous for producing the Spitfire fighter plane during World War II as well as a range of seaplanes and flying boats, and a series of jet-powered fighter aircraft after World War II. The company had successes in the Schneider Trophy for seaplanes, with three wins in a row of 1927, 1929 and 1931. The company was founded in 1913 as Pemberton-Billing Ltd on the River Itchen close to Woolston, Southampton, on ground previously purchased by Noel Pemberton Billing to construct motor launches. It produced a couple of prototypes using quadruplane designs to shoot down zeppelins, the Supermarine P.B.29 and the Supermarine Nighthawk. The aircraft were fitted with the recoilless Davis gun and the Nighthawk had a separate powerplant to power a searchlight.Upon election as a Member of Parliament (MP) in 1916, Pemberton-Billing sold the company to his factory manager and longtime associate Hubert Scott-Paine who renamed the company Supermarine Aviation Works Ltd. The company became famous for its successes in the Schneider Trophy for seaplanes, especially the three wins in a row of 1927, 1929 and 1931. In 1928 Vickers-Armstrongs took over Supermarine as Supermarine Aviation Works (Vickers) Ltd and in 1938 all Vickers-Armstrongs aviation interests were reorganised to become Vickers-Armstrongs (Aircraft) Ltd, although Supermarine continued to design, build and trade under its own name. The phrase Vickers Supermarine was applied to the aircraft. The first Supermarine landplane design to go into production was the famous and successful Spitfire. The earlier Hawker Hurricane and the Spitfire were the mainstay of RAF Fighter Command fighter aircraft which fought off the Luftwaffe bombing raids with fighter escorts during the Battle of Britain in the summer of 1940. While the Hurricane was available in larger numbers and consequently played a larger role, the new Spitfire caught the popular imagination and became the aircraft associated with the battle. It went on to play a major part in the remainder of the war, in a number of variants and marks, and it was the only allied fighter aircraft to be in production through the entirety of the Second World War. Other planes from the period include the Seafire (a naval version of the Spitfire). Supermarine also developed the Spiteful and Seafang, the successors of the Spitfire and Seafire, respectively, and the Walrus flying boat. The Supermarine main works was heavily bombed in 1940. This curtailed work on their first heavy bomber design, the Supermarine B.12/36 which was replaced by the Short Stirling. After the end of the war, the Supermarine division built the Royal Navy's first jet fighter, the Attacker, developed from the final Spitfire type. It served front line squadrons aboard aircraft carriers and RNVR squadrons at shore bases. The Attacker was followed by the more advanced Swift which served in the fighter and photo-reconnaissance roles. The last of the Supermarine aircraft was the Scimitar. In the shakeup of British aircraft manufacturing, Vickers-Armstrongs (Aircraft) became a part of the British Aircraft Corporation and the individual manufacturing heritage names were lost. (en)
