This is the next project. F. Giulli gave us an unarmed model to be converted.

When you have finished typing a post, look at the menu at the top of the page...you'll see Upload Images.  Click that and you get another window to select and upload your images...then it gives you a link for each image to copy/paste into your message.  That's it.  Smiley

wasn't this a fighter?

none of my books even mention the torpedo...

from what I read about the Fiat G.55s it was a mean bird.
it could take on the the Spitfire, Mustang, and even the  FW 190 and give a good account of its self. nat to bad for a plane the was built under wartime conditions and with limited resources.

When it comes to esoteric aircraft variations, Pepe is THE expert.   If he says it, it's so.  Half those books are pretty inaccurate anyhow because they speak only in broad generalities.  Tongue

Yes, it was a fighter modified to carrry a torpedo.  Wink
