Italeri 1/48 MC.200 Saetta - A close look at the Macchi fighter

The Italeri 1/48 MC.200 Saetta scale kit is designed for hobbyists who want to model a genuine example of the Macchi C.200 Saetta. The aircraft's reputation for responsive handling is reflected in the kit's proportions and surface moulding, offering a truthful small-scale representation for display or modelling projects.

Service history and notable aspects

Introduced before the war, the MC.200 earned appreciation for its sturdy build and flying characteristics. Italeri reproduces those visual cues, such as the radial engine silhouette and cockpit opening. Fine panel lines and surface relief support realistic painting and aging techniques.

Workmanship and display outcomes

The Italeri 1/48 MC.200 Saetta targets builders comfortable with intermediate assemblies. Components are produced to reduce excess cleanup, promoting accurate joins and tidy seams. Once finished, the model provides a convincing representation of Italian wartime aviation suitable for cabinets or group displays.
