Hi Jafa,

Any good for what you need to do??



A Fiat G.50bis of20 Gruppo, 51 Stormo based at Ursel, Belgium, in October 1940. Lack of range and poor armament severely restricted the type's participation in the Battle of Britain.

Mussolini led Italy into WW2 on 10th/11th June 1940. Italy posed a very real threat to British interests in the Mediterranean, but for reasons of propaganda (following RAF raids on the Caproni and Fiat factories on mainland Italy) Mussolini was particularly eager to join the assault on Britain itself. In July, he offered units of the Regia Aeronautica for service in the Battle of Britain, and was politely refused by Hitler and Goering. However, after repeated requests, Goering eventually agreed to the participation of a Corpo Aereo Italiano in mid-September.

Opps, scale problem here. The pilot is a lot too small, or... the plane is a lot too big

I think the Italian pilots in COD look odd,as none of them are wearing flying helmets,which I reckon is an oversight by the devs.

If you Google images of any WW2 Italian aircrfaft they're all wearing flying helmets,so where the devs got their info on WW2 Italian pilots being helmetless is anyone's guess.

In fact,imagine not wearing a helmet 10,000 ft up over the channel,in an open cockpit,youre old ears would be pretty cold to say the least,even if it was the summer,as the BOB was taking place in.

BTW awsome skins again Shado
