SIAI-Marchetti SF-260M/AM/W

Unpainted kit set

The SF-260 is an Italian trainer, sports and aerobatic aeroplane that can be found literally world-wide. Here in Europe, it is used by the militaries of Italy, Belgium as well as by the Irish Air Corps.

This kit set no SH72418 was first released in October 2020 and it took us only two months to sell the complete production, the modellers however still demand it to be re-released and so the SF-260 in 72nd is here once again. The box contains five styrene sprues including one with the clear canopy parts (of the earlier, low style) and sports schemes of Italian, Belgian and Irish airframes in the M, AM and W versions. The later machines of the second generation will find their way to the yet coming re-release with the taller canopy of the SF260EA/D versions.

The decal sheet brings complete markings of a Belgian machine wearing anniversary scheme, an Italian one also in bright anniversary scheme and a military-looking Irish SF-260W with underwing pylons and armament.
