About the FIAT CR.42 Falco

The FIAT CR.42 Falco was one of the last biplane fighters to see widespread military service during World War II. Despite the growing dominance of modern monoplane fighters, its manoeuvrability and rugged construction allowed it to remain useful in several roles.

Later versions were adapted for ground-attack missions and night operations, extending the aircraft's operational life.

The Italeri 2842 FIAT CR.42 Falco offers modellers the opportunity to recreate these specialised variants in 1/48 scale.
