1/48 IMAM Ro 57 bis 'Italian Fighter-Bomber'

Special Hobby - 1/48 I.M.A.M. (Romeo) Ro-57bis Italian Fighter Bomber The Imam / Romeo Ro.57 powered with a pair of Fiat A 74 R.C.38 engines had been originally designed as an interceptor but following the initial flight tests it was decided to delegate it to the fighter-bomber role instead designated Ro.57bis. A total of 200 was ordered later to be cut down to only 90 airframes and eventually only 60 of them were produced. These were put to operations with the 97° Gruppo from February 1943.
The kit consists of three styrene sprues plus one with clear parts. The styrene parts are joined with a nicely detailed set of resin parts and etches. The decals cover markings for three fighter-bomber variety machines.
