Italeri 2814 - 1/48 Aermacchi MB 326  [IT-2814S]

The Macchi MB-326 was developed throughout the 1950s to equip working out “Stormi” of the Italian Air Force. The original devices associated with new Macchi two-seat low-wing trainer were delivered in 1961, and straight away turned out to be a technically exemplary aircraft with good trip and operational characteristics. Effortlessly familiar by the 2 wing mounted atmosphere intakes alongside the fuselage, it had been fitted with a British made Bristol Siddeley Viper jet engine. The MB-326 ended up being provided to deliver the higher level training program associated with the Italian Air Force, satisfying this essential role for several years before being changed by the greater contemporary MB-339. It also obtained considerable global commercial success, being sold in more than 10 countries. It certainly became very popular aircraft created by the Italian aeronautical industry. The MB-326 could also be changed into have two 12.7 mm machine weapons mounted, with an offensive ability load of underwing rockets and bombs.
