My second Veltro (Greyhound), in the service of the Aeronautica Nazionale Repubblica and flown by Ten. Sergio Mazzerelli. 3ª Squadriglia, 1° Gruppo, Campoformido (Udine), Italy, Apr.-Aug. 1944

​

Many thanks to those who offered assistance and to those who popped in to have a look. A very nice kit though being a reboxed Hasegawa kit what's not to like. One odd thing, I had a heck of a time getting the landing gear in place using the original Hasegawa kit, the mounting pegs being over-sized. These ones just popped into place......odd
