The Savoia-Marchetti S.M.79 Sparviero earned a reputation in World War II for versatility after evolving from a passenger design into a combat bomber. Its characteristic tri-motor layout is well known, though some versions were converted to twin-engine arrangements using units like the Junkers Jumo 211D, and it served with operators such as Brazil, Iraq and Romania.
Trumpeters 1:48 representation highlights the S.M.79s operational reach from Spain to North Africa and provides modellers with a sizeable, accurate kit. The finished model measures 337.5mm in length with a 442mm wingspan and the box includes 195 plastic parts on six sprues for a comprehensive build.
