Italeri Macchi MC.200 1:32 Model Kit PE-Parts

The Italeri Macchi MC.200 1:32 model kit with PE-Parts brings a key Italian World War II fighter into a scale format shaped for detailed bench work and historically grounded finishing. Its subject stands out through a monoplane configuration and all-metal aircraft construction, marking a clear step away from the Fiat CR.32 and Fiat CR.42 biplanes that still served at the opening of the war. The original aircraft was designed by Mario Castoldi and flew with a 14-cylinder twin-row Fiat A.74 RC.38 radial engine rated at 840 hp, reaching speeds of up to 500 km/h. Above the engine sat 2 x 12.7 mm Breda-SAFAT machine guns, placed around the distinctive bulged cowling that gives the nose its recognisable shape. Later versions added 2 more 7.7 mm Breda-SAFAT machine guns in the wings, adding another layer of reference detail for builders exploring the type's development. Service with the Regia Aeronautica took the Macchi MC.200 across North Africa, the Mediterranean, the Balkans and the Eastern Front in Russia, giving the aircraft a wide operational backdrop for markings, weathering direction and theatre-based presentation. 14 Years+
