+ 6 battle cards
The Macchi MC.202 Folgore represented a crucial innovation for the fighter squadrons of the "Regia Aeronautica" (Royal Italian Air Force). Exceptionally beautiful from an aerodynamic point of view, it was equipped with the powerful German DB 601 in-line engines, which were produced under license by the Italian Air Force . The new engines and the strength of the aviation project gave the "Regia Aeronautica" a fighter that was able to fight "on the same level" with the Allied fighters. The flight performance was compared to the fighters equipped with radial engines Previous generation, like the Fiat G-50 and the Macchi Mc-200, was even significantly better. Manoeuvrable and fast (it could reach 600 km/h), it was in the first versions with two Breda SAFAT caliber machine guns mounted on the front part 12.7 mm. Only in later versions was the armament upgraded to make it more suitable for air combat against American and British fighter planes.
