In September 1943 it became clear that Italy was defeated. A group of
Italian navy aviators knew it, too, and so they decided to fly eight
IMAM / Romeo Ro.43 floatplanes from La Spezia to La Maddalena. They took
off the moment the German troops started to take over the local
armoury. Two of them were shot down, remaining six managed to reach the
Spanish Balearic Islands. The Ro.43s were interned there and later put
to service with the Spanish Naval Air Force designated HR.7.
Our
kit contains a sheet of decals covering one machine wearing the original
Italian markings and also one machine as flown later in Spanish
colours.
