CR42 Falco: Biplane Operations in WWII

The Fiat CR42 Falco is a prime example of late biplane development, combining a metal fuselage frame with aluminium wing components to retain nimble handling. Although it lagged behind newer monoplane fighters, it proved useful in Mediterranean combat and ground attack roles. After Italy capitulated, the Luftwaffe adapted the CR42 for night harassment sorties and training duties.

What This Kit Includes

This Tamiya release, based on the original Italeri tooling, reproduces the Fiat CR42 at 1/48 scale with fine surface detail. Builders can decide whether to fit the aerodynamic wheel spats or leave the wheels exposed. The set contains a pilot figure and useful extras like 50kg bombs, fuel drums and jerry cans, and provides four marking schemes including Western Front liveries.

Scale: 1/48
Assembly Type: Plastic model kit
Paint and decals included: Yes
Accessories: Pilot figure, 50kg bombs, fuel drums, jerry cans

Is this kit suitable for beginners?

The kit is aimed at modellers with some experience due to small parts and alignment of the biplane wings, but careful beginners can complete it with patience and basic modelling tools.

Can I display the aircraft with weapons fitted?

Yes, the accessories include 50kg bombs and fuel drums so you can build several display versions, from clean trainer to armed ground attack configuration.
