Same engine in the AMERICAN built Mustang built under contract with Packard to manufacture the Merlin. All P-51 Mustangs C and D had the same improved Merlin that was in the MK IX Spitfire. Your photo of the bubble canopy only appeared post WWII although they did have the Malcolm hood, a rounded version. Only the Mustang used the bubble in widespread deployment. I enjoyed the video. Thank you

I must disagree on the armament. Both aircraft during the battle of Britain had 8 303 Browning guns. A few Hurricanes did have the four 20MM cannons but were rare. (They were devastating on the German bombers) a few experimental Spitfires were equipped with two 20MM cannons but had jamming issues and were dropped until later when the 'B' wing was designed.

Did the Hurricane ever sport three .50 caliber Browning guns in each wing?

The Hurricane could out turn the Spitfire.
