Italeri 1/35 M.A.S. 563/568 with Crew: Scale Naval Assembly

The Italeri 1/35 M.A.S. 563/568 kit gives Australian builders a compact representation of the famed Italian motor torpedo boats. These fast patrol boats were developed for aggressive coastal operations.

Operational Background and Engine Fit

M.A.S. units were prized for agility and speed, often operating in constrained waters. Commanders like Luigi Rizzo highlighted their offensive capability and the MAS 500 series used Isotta-Fraschini gasoline engines to improve range and reliability.

Scale Detail and Modelling Notes

This kit reproduces key fittings including dual 450mm torpedoes and provision for depth charges, reflecting documented armament. The model captures the performance profile of the boats, which could reach around 40 knots, and includes crew figures for realism.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/35
  • Material: Plastic
  • Includes: Detailed crew figures
  • Assembly: Glue required
  • Paint: Not included
Standard plastic model cement or cyanoacrylate glue will work. Use thin cement for tight seams and superglue for small detail parts.
Yes, modellers often add photoetched parts or brass rigging to enhance realism; check compatibility with 1/35 naval aftermarket sets.
Absolutely. The included crew figures and detailed deck fittings make the kit a strong candidate for coastal or harbour dioramas when paired with scenic elements.
