This product is the perfect choice for modelers who expect faithful reproduction of details in their collections of WWII Italian fighters. The components included in the set are made from high-quality, thin metal, which ensures extremely precise rendering of even the smallest elements of the aircraft's construction.

The Reggiane Re.2002 Ariete was used by the Regia Aeronautica (the Italian Royal Air Force) during World War II, mainly between 1942 and 1943. This aircraft entered service as a versatile fighter and ground-attack plane, taking part in battles over Sicily, among others, and was also used by the German Luftwaffe and Vichy French Air Force. It was characterized by its solid construction and effectiveness in attacks on ground and naval targets.

Eduard 73839 belongs to the category of “photo-etched detail sets for plastic models.” Thanks to the use of photo-etched details, every modeling enthusiast can significantly enhance the realism of their model, replicating the nuances of cockpit equipment and external elements in a way impossible to achieve with standard plastic parts. The set is especially recommended for intermediate and advanced modelers – due to the small size and delicacy of the parts, we recommend an assembly difficulty level of 3/5.
