Trumpeter 02817 Savoia-Marchetti S.M.79-II Sparviero 1:48 Scale Model

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.

The kit suits those with basic modelling skills; beginners can tackle it but should allow extra time for small parts and careful paintwork to get a neat result.
The supplied decals include the S.M.79-II Sparviero 283 Squadriglia scheme and respond well if applied over a gloss surface and sealed with a clear coat after setting.
A hobby knife, fine files, small clamps or masking tape, quality glue, and brushes or an airbrush will cover most tasks needed for assembly, painting and finishing.
