Hello, just as a non-native English speaker,
I would like to know what the abbreviation "Mk" stands for,
e.g. in "Supermarine Spitfire Mk I" or "~ Mk II" and so forth,
which can be found on many other British and American airframe types, too.
Is is "mark", "making" or what else ?
Mark.
Down in the list of definitions of "mark" is
A particular mode, brand, size, or quality of a product, expecially a
weapon or machine.
