Enemies...


Predator and Pray...


Polikarpov I-16 Type 5 and Breda Ba 65bis in 1/100 scale...

[Falco]

Both planes look really great... Never heard of the Breda before, I need to consult the old aviation encyclopedia for this one.

The next project on the workbench... But more slow, is time to retake my normal schedule build...

Thank's Falco.


In fact Breda 65 is a multi-purpose plane, is a fighter/recon/tactical attack made by Italians in 1930's, used in monoplace, biplace conguration, some versions have turrets other no, use different engines, this model is from Zio Prudenzio I made years ago...

Interesting... it's not the first time I see that some countries perhaps because the could not afford to have a specific airframe dedicated to only one job use 1 aircraft to do more than one job even tough it is not suited for it. I wonder how many countries did this during the WW2 period.

Magnificent work on both the i-16 and the Breda Pericles! I love Breda with that camouflage.

Bravo Péricles! Bruno and you have really captured the 'feel' of Polikarpov's little 'fly' aka 'rat'. Seeing your's is a kick in the bum reminder for me to get around to actually test building a repaint of a captured one I did a while back......

Inter-wars military and civil aircraft is a interesting subject. Planes like a Breda 65 is a tendence in late 1930's many Countries make planes for tactical use, like Fairey Beattle, Mitsubishi Ki-30, Northrop 8 family, Potez 63 family...

Thank's my Friend! I glad you like the "O pequeno rato" (the little rat), and you repaint is very interesting. I hope see build...
