The Grumman F-14 Tomcat supersonic carrier-based fighter was the USNavy's aviation icon during the 1980s and 1990s. Easily recognizable by its variable geometry wings and its two-seater configuration, the “Tomcat” offered extraordinary operational performance. Thanks to its two General Electric engines with afterburner it could reach a maximum speed of Mach 2.34. It was armed with a 20 mm M61 Vulcan cannon and could employ, in addition to the more conventional AIM-9 Sidewinder and AIM-7 Sparrow, long-range AIM-54 Phoenix missiles. It entered service around the mid-1970s, replacing the F-4 Phantom II in the role of interceptor and air superiority fighter. During his operational career he participated in numerous military operations from the Gulf of Sidra to the Iraq War.
The Savoia-Marchetti SM79 'Sparviero' (Sparrowhawk) was an Italian bomber originally designed as a passenger transport. It was introduced in 1936 and first served during the Spanish Civil War. The SM79 had three engines, a distinctive hump in the fuselage, and was constructed of welded steel tubing, plywood, and fabric. This made the SM79 ideal as a torpedo bomber with its construction allowing the top of the downed aircraft to remain afloat long enough for the crew to escape. The SM79 was armed with 5 machine guns including three 12.7mm although no turrets were ever fitted. It consisted of 5 or 6 men. SM79s served in all theaters of the Italian conflict during World War II, although they were important in their role as torpedo boats in the Mediterranean between 1940 and 1942.

Il Focke-Wulf Fw190 a partire dal 1939, si domostrò una minaccia immediata per i caccia della RAF quando fu introdotto alla fine del 1941, essendo più veloce e manovrabile dello Spitfire V allora in servizio. Questa versione, la A-8 era la variante più numerosa e pesantemente armata, che entrò in servizio nel 1944, con l'intento di fermare le incursioni diurne alleate, tuttavia, a quel punto i nuovi velivoli alleati avevano iniziato a surclassarla.
MC.205 VELTRO ITALERI 1227 contains decals for 3 versions of figures not included. glue and paints not included Description The Macchi MC 205 is an evolution of the previous MC 202 «Folgore», certainly the best fighter deployed by the Italian Air Force during the 2nd World War. Equipped with a more powerful engine, it offered excellent handling qualities and a good speed, albeit limited in armament which was increased during production with the adoption of two 20 mm cannons. But the industrial limits of Italy did not allow to reach a production suitable for the war needs of these aircraft and the number of machines delivered to the departments was too limited to influence the Allied aerial power.
Italeri 1425 F-35 B lightning II 1/72 scale The JSF Joint Strike Fighter program was set up to develop a new fifth generation "all-weather" multi-role fighter capable of constituting a valid replacement for the current ground attack aircraft of the United States and NATO countries. The Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II single-seat aircraft was born from the project. Equipped with extraordinary technology, it is characterized by the adoption of an aerodynamic layout, with stealth characteristics, with a trapezoidal wing. Designed to carry out air superiority, close air support and ground attack missions, its airframe can be developed in different configurations. The F-35B, thanks to its STOVL capabilities, was designed for vertical landing and take-off and to operate from aircraft carriers such as the Queen Elizabeth of the Royal Navy or the Cavour of the Italian Navy. Also used by the Marine Corps, it is characterized by the adoption of the Pratt & Whitney engine with afterburner and downward-adjustable exhaust nozzle. The extreme operational flexibility, the offensive load it is capable of transporting, the on-board technology and the strong innovation of the project will make the F-35 Lightning II a sure protagonist of the 21st century military aeronautics.
FIAT CR 42 FALCO SUPER DECAL FOR 6 VERSIONS - COLOR INSTRUCTION SHEET Starting from the great success of the CR 32 “Freccia” biplane, which proved its reliability and operational efficiency during the Spanish Civil War, Fiat developed, at the end of the 1930s , the new CR 42 “Falco”. The new single-seat biplane fighter had, like its predecessor, a fixed landing gear and an open cabin but was equipped with some innovations such as the structure entirely in aluminum and steel covered in metal and canvas. Its Fiat A.74 air-cooled radial engine allowed the Fiat CR 42 to reach 400 km/h. It was equipped with extraordinary maneuverability, much appreciated by pilots, but suffered from the limitations of the "biplane" configuration. Able to outperform the Gloster Gladiators, it proved unsuitable to face the much faster and better armed modern Hawker Hurricane and Supermarine Spitfire fighters. Several Fiat CR 42s, together with the Fiat G 50 fighters and the BR-20 and CANT Z 1007 bombers were also used during the Battle of Britain, part of the Italian Air Corps. ITALERI 1437
SUPER DECAL FOR 6 VERSIONS - PHOTO-ETCHED INCLUDED - COLOR INSTRUCTIONS Produced by the Italian company CRDA (Cantieri Riuniti dell'Adriatico), the CANT Z 506 Airone was a low-wing, double-float, three-engined seaplane characterized by extraordinary reliability and sturdiness. It entered operational service from the second half of the 1930s. Its structure was mainly made of wood but, despite this, the aeronautical project proved to be so valid that the Airone could also operate in particularly adverse weather conditions. It was used by the Regia Aeronautica for long-range bombing and maritime reconnaissance operations. It was also used for search and rescue operations at sea. The good flying qualities are proven by the extraordinary operational longevity. Some "506" remained in service until 1960 in the SAR departments of the Italian Air Force.
JAGUAR GR.3;BIG Ca italeri 1:72 The Jaguar ground attack aircraft, born in the 60s from a collaborative project of the French and British aeronautical industries, was used by the Royal Air Force until the advanced half of the 2000s demonstrating extraordinary longevity and operational efficiency. Thanks to its two turbojet engines it was able to reach and exceed mach 1.6. It has been employed, completing numerous missions, in operational areas characterized by a high level of complexity, including the Balkans and Iraq. In particular, the Jaguar Gr. 3 "all-weather" single-seat version has been significantly updated in avionics and has been equipped with terrain mapping and GPS tracking systems to optimize the role of ground attack aircraft. To celebrate the years of active service, the interesting “Big Cat” commemorative livery was created when he was discharged.
F4U-4B Corsair BY Italeri | No. 062 | 1:72 The Corsair is one of the most famous and successful fighters of the Second World War, where in the Pacific theater of operations it imposed itself on all the different models deployed by the Japanese Air Force. In the aftermath of the Conflict, the Corsairs, like all the other propeller-driven aircraft, were set aside pending demolition due to the advent of jet-propelled aircraft. But in 1950 the Korean War began and hundreds of F 4 U 4s were recovered and reactivated to meet war needs.

Chance Vought took up the challenge, aiming to fit the most powerful of the engines available (i.e. the Pratt-Whitney Double Wasp engine) into the smallest possible airframe. The key was placing the awkward landing gear in the inverted, crooked wings that became the aircraft's hallmark. Flight of the prototype took place on May 29, 1940, and the US Navy received its first serial Corsair on July 31, 1942. However, tests by the US Navy on aircraft carriers revealed some flaws in the design, which meant that the first production run of the aircraft went to Marine Corps squadrons and operated from land bases. The first unit received by the F-4 was VMF-124 at Gudalcanal. It soon turned out that the new machine definitely surpasses all enemy machines and, in many respects, even the F-6 Hellcat. At the same time, however, it was very difficult to fly and required great attention when landing. Interestingly, only up to 20% of Corsair missions took off from the decks of aircraft carriers, and for almost the entire war they remained primarily a Marine Corps machine. After the end of World War II, the F-4 Corsair remained on the line and took part in the Korean War (1950-1953). Technical data (F4U-4 version): Maximum speed: 731 km/h, rate of climb: 19.7 m/s, maximum ceiling 12649 m, maximum range: 1115 km, armament: fixed - 6 M2 machine guns, 12 caliber, 7 mm and 4 20 mm Browning cannons, sling - up to 1800 kg of bombs.

HAWK T1 ITALERI 1:72 Description SUPER DECAL FOR 5 VERSIONS - COLOR INSTRUCTIONS The Hawk T Mk 1 was developed by Hawker Siddeley, today absorbed into BAE Systems, to equip the advanced training departments of the Royal Air Force in the second half of the 70s. Its aerodynamic configuration is characterized by the two tandem seats and the low wing. Its Rolls Royce Adour jet engine guarantees good flight performance which, combined with excellent maneuverability, make it an excellent subsonic trainer. The Hawk T1A version was, more specifically, developed as a light tactical support aircraft capable of being equipped with two AIM-9L Sidewinder air-to-air missiles and with a central Aden pod. It achieved good commercial success and was adopted by numerous air forces around the world. The modified Hawk T1A is still used by the Royal Air Force "Red Arrows" aerobatic team.
Tupolev Tu-16K-10Il (Cyrillic Туполев Ту-16, NATO reporting name Badger) was a twin-engine low-swept-wing jet bomber designed by OKB 156 directed by Andrei Nikolaevich Tupolev, developed in the Soviet Union in the 1950s. It entered the line about five years after the US Boeing B-47 Stratojet, with which it had much in common in terms of overall capabilities, but a totally different architecture: decidedly "traditional" as regards the fuselage, very advanced in the field of propulsion thanks to only two high-power motors. The Tu-16 is a very significant aircraft because it started from a common ancestor, the B-29, also reproduced in the USSR as the Tu-4, compared to its more direct American equivalent, the B-47. However, the Tu-16 remained more faithful to the original design, and in general, it was still a classic machine, with a large crew and with a large number of defensive guns. However, the type of propulsion, being given by only 2 reactors, was particularly innovative, and almost projected it into the next generation of modern interdiction and attack aircraft. And it is precisely the availability of such powerful engines that made the Tu-16 so interesting, aerodynamic and substantially mature already for mass production after a few refinements. trumpeter 1:72

The transmission was provided by a single Delta Isotta-Fraschini engine with a power of 750 hp. The prototype flight took place in 1941 - the machine went only into pre-series production. The deck armament consisted of two 12.7 mm BREDA-Safat machine guns. Ambrosini SAI.207 was born as a far-reaching development of the SAI.7 sports aircraft. It places particular emphasis on the lowest possible production costs, good maneuverability, especially at low altitudes, and high top speed. However, the machine also had disadvantages: low rate of climb, delicate construction that made it difficult to mount small arms larger than 12.7 mm caliber, and underdeveloped insulation of the wooden structure, which could not withstand rain. After field trials and marginal combat use against Allied bombing, the Ambrosini SAI.207 did not enter mass production. RS MODELS SCALE 1:72
TORNADO GR.1 RAF REVELL 1:72 The origins of the Tornado design date back to 1968. It was then that the trinational PANAVIA consortium was formed to carry out the project known as MRCA (Multi-Role Combat Aircraft). On 14 September 1974 the flight of the first prototype took place and construction of the first 640 aircraft ordered began, with production being split so that Germany and Great Britain each completed 42.5% and Italy 15% of the total. order. Tornado fleets are currently the most important part of the aviation of three European NATO countries. They remain in the composition of the air forces of Great Britain (Royal Air Force), Italy (Italian Air Force) and Germany (Luftwaffe) and in the aviation of the German Navy (Marinefliege). Furthermore, in 1986, some of these aircraft were ordered by Saudi Arabia and incorporated into its armed forces (Royal Saudi Air Force). There are three main versions of the aircraft: Tornado ECR, Tornado ADV and Tornado IDS. Tornado ECR is a German/Italian reconnaissance version, it can carry Raytheon AGM - 88 HARM anti-radar missiles. Additionally, they carry AIM-9L Sidewinder missiles for self-defense purposes. The Tornado ADV is a version of the interceptor, equipped with the large Marconi-Ferranti Foxhunter radar with a range of up to 190 km and capable of tracking up to 20 targets simultaneously. The Tornado IDS, on the other hand, is an assault bomber designed primarily to support ground forces. It is capable of carrying a wide range of weapons, including: a CWS flying cartridge, Paveway II guided bombs, GBU-15 guided bombs, AGM-65 Maverick air-to-ground missiles. Technical data (ADV version): length: 18.68 m, wingspan (maximum): 13.91 m, height: 5.95 m, maximum speed: 2.27 mA, rate of climb: 77 m/s, ceiling practical: 21300 m, maximum range: 1850 km, armament: fixed - one 27 mm IWKA-Mauser cannon, suspended - up to 8500 kg load.

Boeing B-29A Superfortress Bockscar The Boeing B-29 Superfortress (Model 341/345) was a strategic bomber, four-engine propeller and medium wing, developed by the US aeronautical company Boeing in the early forties, famous for having taken part in the bombing of Japan by the United States Army Air Forces (USAAF) during World War II and for ushering in the nuclear age. It was also the largest and heaviest of the aircraft to have seen operational service in the conflict. Born as a high-altitude day bomber, it was instead often used for low- and medium-altitude night-time incendiary bombing raids on Japan, as well as for dropping the two atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The two specimens that operated the atomic bombing were called "Enola Gay" and "BOCKSCAR". The B-29 was the single most expensive project of the entire Second World War: its development required investments of three billion dollars. It is considered the most effective bomber of the war in every respect and the most advanced Allied bomber. BY Academy | No. 2173 | 1:72
Mikojan-Guriewicz MiG-29 (NATO: Fulcrum) is a Soviet, twin-engine, fourth-generation front-line heavy fighter with striped trapezoidal wings. The sheer number of over 1000 MiG 29s produced between 1977 and 1992 demonstrates the potential capabilities of this aircraft. In fact it must be included in the group of the 3 or 4 most important, currently in active service, 4th generation fighters in the world. The MiG-29 was designed in the 1970s as a construction capable of equaling or even exceeding the combat capabilities of the fighters of the then hostile Western camp. And it must be admitted that it is in no way inferior to, for example, the F-16 and with many elements, such as a powerful twin-engine transmission, it surpasses the American competitor. Because the MiG-29 was designed to be repaired as quickly as possible, even in the field and by mechanics with minimal experience, any repairs can actually be done at lightning speed. Hard to imagine, but 5 mechanics are able to replace and test an engine in less than an hour! The extraordinary capabilities of the Fulcrum don't end there. If there is a problem with the unit, even when fully loaded, it can start using one motor and then fire the other into the air. The permanent armament of the MIG 29 is the 30mm GSh-301 cannon, known for its accuracy. The external nodes can carry AA-10, AA-11 or AA-8 air-to-air missiles and UB-32-57 or the unguided but larger S-8K missiles to counter ground targets, not only from former Eastern Bloc countries , but also many other users who have appreciated its great potential. Several versions of this successful fighter have been created. The most important are, among others, the first mass-produced MiG-29 (Fulcrum-A) with the S-29 Topaz radar and the OEPrNk-29 optoelectronic system. Another development version is the MiG-29M (Fulcrum-E) with S-29M Żuk radar with increased range and improved guidance and aiming system. More powerful RD-33K engines were also used instead of the RD-33. A fly-by-wire system was also used. Technical data: length: 17.37 m, wingspan: 11.4 m, height: 4.73 m, maximum speed: 2400 km/h, rate of climb: 330 m/s, maximum range: 2100 km, maximum ceiling 18000 m, armament: fixed- 1 x 30 mm GSh-301 cannon, suspended (M version) - up to 5000 kg load. by FUJIMI 72189
