Do any of the scenarios involve the Greeks? They were badly outnumbered, and their aircraft usually weren't as good as the Italians, so I understand the Italians won more fights than they lost. Grelber
Who has some WWII Greek land forces and might be suckered into Greco-Italian air warfare. |

No Greeks in these scenarios, Grelber. Slug – wonderful! I am adding them to my list…thanks! However, I do not see any Italian aircraft on the PT Dockyard site. |

Darryl, they were there, using the Wayback Machine, I found them in 2012. My list is old. AA2 Caproni CA 380 "Corsaro" twin boom Italian fighter………$4.00
The Ca 380 Corsaro was a twin- fuselage two-seat fighter with the crew seated in tandem in a cockpit carried by the starboard boom (a similar arrangement to that adopted for the S.M.92). The Corsaro was powered by two 1,550-h.p. Daimler- Benz DB 603 engines and carried an armament of four 2O-mm. Mauser cannon and a bomb load under the wing section between the two fuselages. A prototype of the Corsaro was flight tested but eventually destroyed by the retreating German forces. AA3 Ambrosini SAI.207 Italian Fighter…………………………….$2.75
Coming soon- , more Italian, Finnish, Romanian, US and German projects |

PT dockyard dropped a lot of items years ago as their molds aged. Maybe a lot faster than they intended. Maybe they felt they were casting their net too widely. I got some of their last SOC-V riverine assault boats in 6mm. The mold was already starting to deteriorate so mine have "tarps" covering areas of the deck where the mold was going. |

Nice list. I think the quality of Raiden has gone down in the last several years
Grelber, my favorite scenario for the Greeks is to have a couple of bomber escorted by CR 42s intercepted by PZL 24s. Cheers

Thanks, Slug! I am keeping my list to what is currently available. I ordered a few planes from PT recently (Vanguards and P-59s) so I might reach out and see if the others will be available anytime soon. Joe – I agree – seemingly the Raiden castings are not as crisp as even a few years ago. |

Having bought most of my Raiden models when they were produced here in the UK, I can definitely say the quality has gone down. Luckily I'm not in the market for any more of their aircraft. |

When Dave was first producing them here they were still good. But the last year or two they have fallen off. I don't know if it's moulds or metal. Too bad. He has been nice to deal with. Joe |
paints up some WWII Soviet aircraft.
