IMAM Ro 43/44

Description

The Ro. 43/44 series of floatplanes were developed for use by the Italian navy as reconnaissance and spotter aircraft. Rugged and reliable, the Ro.43/44 served the Italian Navy well throughout its service life. This monograph, because of the nature of the aircraft chronicled, gives the reader much information about the combat activities of the Regia Marina. Used on both battleships and cruisers, the Ro.43/44 saw action in every naval engagement of the RM. This high-quality series of monographs is exclusively devoted to Italian WW2 aircraft. The series is edited by Giorgio Apostolo, the best known and most respected Italian Aviation Historian and the author of several authoritative texts. The volumes contain text in both English and Italian and contain the history of each aircraft and a technical description of the planes. Each book is lavishly illustrated with drawings from original instruction manuals and never before seen photos. Technical drawings ( 6-views ) are provided in both 1/72 and 1/48 scales; colour profiles, views and cockpit interiors are also provided.
