Subjectively speaking I actually find the Re. 2005 quite ugly due to awkward proportions. I find the Fiat G.55 is more to my taste, and would prefer it over the Sagittario.

I would however support any attempt to bring more Italian aircraft to AH and particularly like Dr Zhivago's list posted earlier.

I agree 100%, quite possibly one of the ugliest fighters of WW2. :( Thec205 and especially the G55 are much better looking.

I need

MC200
G55
Re2005
SM79
P108

We have only two kinds of airplanes now.
Now, no strategy can be managed with the Italy army plane.
If one of these airplanes appears, we can be enjoyed from now.

Tack said "I need ... P108"

Can I we have the P.108A for a weapon load out?:D

One of the last Cant bombers was a twin engine one, with much better specs than the 1007. The lion?

A friend of my family was shot down over Malta. From what I've heard and read in italian books Malta was a real nitemare for pilots. Much more than North Africa. Many surviving pilots dont even want to remember and speak about it.


I found a orginal print from 44 or 43, I don't have it handy.  Found it in a used bookstore for $20, I almost crapped myself.

No doubt about, Malta was a hellish place to fight on both sides.

PS: Never noticed your sig until now, small world.:)

Although my performance is also important, I also regard
intensity as important. All empty will be filled with spit,
 nik, and la7 if it asks only for a performance.:D

I want the AC of Italy anyhow.;)

Plane saw action at English channel, southern Russia and in the Mediterranean (North Africa, East Africa, Balkans and Greece). Plane was entirely made from wood :eek:, about 560 were built. Z.1007 ter was improved version (three Piaggio P.XIX radial engines) and plane reached a top speed of 304 mph and a ceiling of 32,890 ft... :)
