Hi Longinus

...no...it's an helicopter totally made in Italy.....it's smaller than an Apache....
It was used in all italian ONU mission (Irak, Somalia, Kosovo and other countries) and revelead itself a good hely.....

The AH 64 Apache...is enormous....and more powerful....

Hi all

many many thanks to all you....

For ROMI

Hi Romi... unfortunately , due to the decals used, I'll only set in Italy.
This unit operated only in Italy....and the Hely made out from Italeri is the first version...
the second one, used on ONU Mission, is the enhanced version with an MG on the nose and other improvements

Hi, Mario!
Very nice little Mangusta!
I have also an Italeri A-129 1/72 kit, and I intend to tranform it into Mangusta CBT (5 blades for the main rotor , turreted gun, new sensors). But I do not know when I'm gonna finish this...
