Compared to the Fiat CR.32 and Fiat CR.42 biplanes, which still formed the backbone of Italian fighter units at the beginning of World War II, the Macchi MC.200, along with its contemporary Fiat G.50, stood out for its monoplane configuration and all-metal construction. Powered by a 14-cylinder, twin-row Fiat A.74 RC.38 radial engine delivering 840 hp, the Macchi MC.200 could reach speeds of up to 500 km\/h. However, when compared to its Allied counterparts, the MC.200 proved to be underpowered and, above all, lightly armed. Its armament consisted of only two 12.7 mm Breda-SAFAT machine guns mounted above the engine’s distinctive bulged cowling. In later versions, two additional 7.7 mm Breda-SAFAT machine guns were installed in the wings. The aircraft was employed by the Regia Aeronautica on major World War II fronts, including North Africa, the Mediterranean, the Balkans, and the Eastern Front in Russia.\u003cbr style=\"box-sizing: inherit; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: normal; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;\"\u003e\u003cbr style=\"box-sizing: inherit; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: normal; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"box-sizing: inherit; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: normal; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;\"\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"box-sizing: inherit;\"\u003eScale is 1:32\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"box-sizing: inherit;\"\u003eSize of the model is 25.8cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"box-sizing: inherit;\"\u003eBox size is 44cm x 27cm x 10.5cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"box-sizing: inherit;\"\u003eWith 100% new moulds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"box-sizing: inherit;\"\u003eFasteners bag\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"box-sizing: inherit;\"\u003eWith six version decal sheet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"box-sizing: inherit;\"\u003eIncludes 3D decals and masking sheet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"box-sizing: inherit;\"\u003ePhoto-etched fret\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Gift factory","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53867581866325,"sku":"2516","price":94.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0939\/0804\/2069\/files\/thgTOZ9MyUjPX4Em7vmLZqPbI2vMrdasE6Tohwcu.jpg?v=1784300286"},{"product_id":"tornado-gr-1-desert-storm-raf-aircraft","title":"Italeri 1\/32 Tornado GR.1 Desert Storm RAF Aircraft Scale model kit 2521","description":"The Tornado project was born from the collaboration between Italy, Germany, and the United Kingdom to develop a high-performance multirole combat aircraft. The result was a twin-engine, two-seat aircraft with variable-geometry wings, specifically designed to fulfil its primary role: a low-altitude supersonic strike fighter capable of “following” the terrain profile. The Tornado IDS (Interdictor\/Strike), optimized for attack missions, was the first variant to enter service with the operational flying units of the three countries involved in the project. Specifically, the aircraft delivered to the British Royal Air Force were designated as the GR.1 and were actively employed—carrying out a high number of missions—during the 1991 Gulf War.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScale is 1:32\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSize of the model is 52.1cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePhoto-etched fret\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlastic and rubber tyres\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDecal sheet for British RAF \"Gulf War edition\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli id=\"isPasted\"\u003eRemovable RB199 engine with support trolley\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRetracted or extended flaps and slats\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMovable ailerons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOpenable radome and fully detailed radars\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOpen or closed thrust reversers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOpen or closed air brakes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVariable sweep wings and pylons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRubber cover for wings' re-entry point\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew Mk.13\/18 Paveway LGB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCockpit masking sheets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuper decal sheet for 4 versions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Gift factory","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53867584880981,"sku":"2521","price":114.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0939\/0804\/2069\/files\/2521_02.jpg?v=1784299579"}],"url":"https:\/\/the-gift-factory.co.uk\/collections\/italeri-1-32-aircraft.oembed","provider":"The Gift factory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
