One stray bullet or a piece of shrapnel in the cooling system and it’s over. Air cooled radials were considered less easy to bring down.

Wrong it was damaged on a forward airfield in Normandy by a mortar round . During a German attack this was not done by flak damaged. Look at the ground this was in a flypast magazine a few months ago.

Leading Aircraftman R.P. Coulson removes the guns from a Canadian (RCAF) Spitfire which was heavily damaged. In this case, an RCAF Spitfire has been blasted on the ground at Grave, Holland, in March 1945. The damage was inflicted by a fragmentation bomb dropped during a hit-and-run raid from the Luftwaffe. Night bomber or me-262 raid most likely.
