The Italeri 2710S captures the Macchi MB 326K Impala at 1/48 scale, reflecting its dual role as a trainer and an armed single-seat platform. Originating in the 1950s as a two-seater trainer, the type was adapted into a combat version fitted with a more powerful turbojet and the capacity to carry over 1800 kg of weapons, including bombs and rocket mounts.
Built under licence in South Africa as the Impala, the MB 326K remains of interest to modellers who focus on Cold War era trainers and light attack aircraft.
