Yes they would. "Spitfire" is not dependent on where or when they were used. It is dependent on the current Mk/spec that the ORIGINAL manufacturer puts on them.
If some bloke called Henry Ford (not the original), builds a plastic copy of a Mustang with a Fiat 500 engine, is that a "real" one?
Item one would depend on the licence/approval from the original manufaturer.
