I am almost sure that the DEVS had other data, maybe from URSS evaluations of the SPITS and 109s that not exactly match the data presented here.

Well a key point about the spitfireperformance website is it gives us data collected at the time in reports written at the time. It is unlikely that Russian test organisations would have got any nearer to the true performance figures than the companies building the aircraft and engines and their prime user the RAF and its test organisations.
