CR 32 “Chirri” 1/72 scale (num. 1322)








Historical profile.


Designed in the early part of the '30s,  the Fiat CR 32 was powered by an V 12-cylinders, producing 600 hp. It was able  to reach, as maximum speed,  375 Km / h. Among the most famous biplanes of aviation History the CR 32  was characterized by an extraordinary maneuverability. It was also strong, very reliable and well armed for the historical period, with two 12.7 mm Breda-Safat machine gun located on the top of engine and firing through the propeller disc. The Fiat CR 32 had its baptism of fire with the Legionary Air Forces, during the Spanish Civil War,  and soon obtained the air superiority against the  Soviet-made monoplane fighters, like the Polikarpov I-16, that formed the Squadrons of Republican Aviation.  Thanks to the extraordinary mobility and the training of pilots, the Italian fighters  prevailed even on from more modern enemy airplanes such as the Soviet-made Tupolev SB-2 bomber considered, thanks to its speed, impossible to be intercepted.

Historical profile.


The 20-feet freight container is a key element for the international logistics. The 20-feet freight container, and the larger version and roomy 40-feet container, are in fact the international standard reference for all Countries. The standardize container – in terms of size, volumes and loading capacity – makes possible to optimize the intermodal freight by ships, trains and trucks. The logistic has became more effective and faster. Even the warehouses and stocking areas management became easier and more flexible. Thanks to its features and flexibility the 20-feet container has been adopted by several Armies to optimize the logistic and the ground support activities.
