I believe that is a spit being readied up to be fired of a CAM ship.

Supply of Supermarine Spitfires to Soviet Union began early-1943 with transfer of 143 Mk VBs. 1,188 Mk IXs were supplied to the Soviet Union in 1943-44.

Found the above at: http://www.jaapteeuwen.com/ww2aircraft/h...ghter).htm
Hope this helps
