Item no.: 510002518
Designation: 1:32 Macchi MC. 202

The Macchi MC.202 Folgore was a decisive innovation for the fighter squadrons of the "Regia Aeronautica" (Royal Italian Air Force). Exceptionally beautiful from an aerodynamic point of view, it was equipped with the powerful German DB 601 in-line engines, which were produced under licence by the Italian Air Force. The new engines and the strength of the aviation project gave the "Regia Aeronautica" a fighter aircraft capable of fighting "on a par" with the Allied fighters. Its flight performance was even significantly better than that of the previous generation of fighter aircraft equipped with radial engines, such as the Fiat G-50 and the Macchi Mc-200. Agile and fast (it could reach 600 km/h), the first versions were armed with two 12.7 mm calibre Breda SAFAT machine guns mounted on the front section. It was only in later versions that the armament was upgraded to make it more suitable for air combat against American and British fighter aircraft.
