Triple kit celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Italian PAN aerobatic
demonstration team: Aermacchi MB-339 advanced jet trainer, Fiat G.91 fighter-bomber and
Canadair F-86F transonic fighter - all in service with the Pattuglia Acrcobatica Nazionale
'Frecce Tricolor' of Italy's Aeronautica Militare. MB 339 has raised panel lines, basic tandem

Each aircraft features decals and painting reference for multiple 'Frecce Tricolor' aircraft:

1961-1963 - includes wing, stabilizer and fuselage livery.
The Tornado was the result of a collaborative project between three countries (the UK, Germany
and Italy) aimed at developing a bomber able to operate in TFR (terrain following radar) mode,
flying at low level over uneven terrain. Despite a series of problems that were more political
than technical, which delayed its deployment, almost 1000 Tornado IDS planes were built and it
turned out to be an excellent machine in action, both during the Gulf War and in the operations
in the former Yugoslavia. Today, about 750 Tornado IDSs remain in service with the nations of
the consortium that built them and with Saudi Arabia.
Tornado IDS with 'Black Panthers' Special Colors. Panavia-built variable geometry twin-engine
attack aircraft kit. Features recessed panel lines, detailed cockpits, pivoting wings, weapons

FIAT G91 R1/3 1/48 - ITA2645
Developed in the early 1950s to participate in the NATO tender for a lightweight fighter,
the G.91 was designed by Giuseppe Gabrielli (who also designed the Fiat G.55) who drew his
inspiration from the F-86 Sabre, then produced under license by FIAT. While there was no
follow-up to the NATO tender (won, as it would turn out, by the G.91), the aircraft
nevertheless went into production and was ordered by both the Aeronautica Militare Italiana
and the Luftwaffe; some G.91s were subsequently ceded by Germany to the Portuguese air
force and it was here that they first saw action during operations in Angola. With the
Aeronautica Militare Italiana the G.91 had a long career with both operative squadrons
and the country's aerobatic team, the Frecce Tricolori. The last planes were withdrawn
from service in 1992.
This small, maneuverable trainer, used by pilots to make the switch from propeller aircraft to jets,
was built for the Italian air force in the late 50s/early 60s. Simple and tough, extremely maneuverable
and easy to fly, it soon became one of the Italian aeronautical industry's "best sellers", enjoying
considerable export success. Several versions of the MB 326 saw service with the Australian and South
African air forces. There, as in Italy, it has only recently been replaced by more modern Macchi aircraft.
The MB.326 was also used in combat by the Argentinian Air Force.
Markings for four aircraft: Australia, South Africa, Argentina and Italy.
Merlin HMA.1 Royal Navy. Jointly developed/built by Agusta and Westland, the EH.101 is
undoubtedly today's most advanced medium helicopter. Powered by three General Electric CT7-6
or Rolls-Royce Turbomeca RTM322 turbines (each fueled by its own self-sealing tank), it
features a main 5-blade rotor made of composite material that, thanks to a special anti-vibration
system, ensures extremely silent running. Five nations (United Kingdom, Italy, Canada, Denmark
and Portugal) have chosen the EH.101 Collaboration with Lockheed-Martin has also led to the
founding of team US101, which won the tender for the new US Presidential helicopter Marine 1.
Includes: decals, instruc, clear canopy, markings for one Royal Navy helicopter.

VH-7 "Marine One" (EH-101) 1/72 - ITA1268
The EH-101 was designed and built by a partnership of Agusta of Italy and
G.K.N. Westland of Great Britain (now part of the Agusta consortium). It first took to the
air in 1987 and now equips the R.A.F. and Royal Navy as the EH-101 Merlin,
the Canadian Armed Forces as the EH-101 Cormorant and of course the Italian Navy.
The EH-101 has also been ordered by Denmark, Portugal and Japan and was offered to the U.S.A. as the US-101.
The U.S. Marines have now selected it as a replacement for the VH-3D as "Marine One",
used by the President of the United States. It will enter into this role in 2009.
Contains decals for EH-101 "Marine One".

and easy to fly, it soon became one of the Italian aeronautical industry's "best sellers", enjoying

The MB.326 was also used in combat by the Argentinian Air Force.
Iconic trainer/light attack aircraft heavily produced in South Africa and elsewhere under license,
was successfully employed in the attack role during the border war with Angola and even used by the
the South African acrobatic display team and only recently was decommission in 2005 after more
than 40 yrs of sterling service.
Markings for six aircraft: 3 x South Africa, 1 x UAE, 2 x Italy (AMI).
MB-339A - Falkland / Malvinas War 1982 - 1/72- IT1354
The Aermacchi MB-339 was developed as a direct evolution of MB-326. The MB-339 project was in fact based
on the main aerodynamic characteristics of its predecessor, enhancing the role of advanced military trainer
through the redesign of the forward fuselage to raise the instruction’s seat and to increase visibility. Thanks
to its maneuverability, the good operational flexibility, and the possibility to load a wide range of weapons
in its hard points under the wings, the MB 339 has also been developed to perform light attack and close support
duties. The Italian Air Force is the main user of the MB-339 as advance trainer plane. Furhter more the MB-339
has been used by Argentine Naval Aviation, as light attack fighter, during the Falkland / Malvinas War in 1982.
Markings for four aircraft: 1 x Argentina, 1 x UAE, 2 x Italy
