Italeri 01437 1/72 Scale Fiat Cr.42 Falco
Introducing the Italeri 01437 1/72 Scale Fiat CR.42 Falco, a single-seat biplane fighter developed by Italian manufacturer Fiat in the late 1930s. Building on the success of its predecessor, the C.R. 32 "Freccia," which proved its reliability and operational efficiency during the Spanish Civil War, the C.R. 42 "Falco" featured important innovations such as an alloy and steel frame covered by canvass and metal paneling. Equipped with a supercharged air-cooled Fiat A.74 radial engine, the Fiat C.R. 42 could reach a top speed of 400 km/h and boasted extraordinary maneuverability that was much appreciated by Italian pilots. However, its "biplane" configuration limited its capabilities, and it was eventually outclassed by faster and heavily armed monoplanes such as the Hawker Hurricane and the Supermarine Spitfire. Nonetheless, several Fiat C.R. 42, along with G.50 fighters and BR.20 and CANT Z 1007 bombers, were used by the Italian Regia Aeronautica during the Battle of Britain as part of the "Corpo Aereo Italiano." Experience the history and performance of the Italeri 01437 1/72 Scale Fiat CR.42 Falco as you recreate epic battles and missions from the past with this highly-detailed model.
