Plenty of personal accounts from pilots talking about their experiences throughout the war, sprinkled throughout the book. There are also plenty of archive photos, along with a section colour artwork with 10 pages of beautiful colour profiles plus another 3 pages of squadron and more personal insignias., "Plenty of personal accounts from pilots talking about their experiences throughout the war, sprinkled throughout the book. There are also plenty of archive photos, along with a section colour artwork with 10 pages of beautiful colour profiles plus another 3 pages of squadron and more personal insignias." - Robin Buckland, Military Model Scene " This is another in the outstanding Combat Aircraft series and it follows the same successful format of previous Osprey volumes. It is filled with photographs and personal accounts. The colour profile section is notable for the variety of schemes the Folgores and Veltros wore in various air arms. There is also a colour art section on the gruppo and stormo insignia painted on the sides of many Macchi fighters. The level of editing is superb and the book reads in a logical and easy to understand format. I highly recommend this latest volume on a lesser known subject known as the Macchi C.202 and C.205V. It's a worthy addition to any military aviation historian or enthusiast's shelves." - Todd Shugart, The Aviation Enthusiast Book Club

Synopsis
A study of the Macchi Folgore and Veltro, the most successful Italian fighters in World War II. With specially commissioned profiles, the book examines how these fighters were conceived, their performance and the fascinating stories of their pilots., A study of the Macchi Folgore and Veltro, the most successful Italian fighters in World War II. With specially commissioned profiles, the book examines how these fighters were conceived, their performance and the fascinating stories of their pilots. Italian fighters, such as the Fiat G.50 and Macchi C.200, had always struggled with their straight-line speed and restricted armament when engaging their Allied counterparts. To solve these problems, Macchi initially designed the C.202 Folgore using German engines, which contributed to create a faster aircraft, with a superior rate of climb and reachable altitude. Folgore's success in various North African engagements then paved the way for the development of Macchi's most successful fighter, the C.205V Veltro, which managed to combine increased speed and increased power. Packed with specially commissioned artwork and original photos, and written by Italian military aviation specialist Marco Mattioli, this fascinating book explores how the premier Italian fighter of the war came to life and the historical circumstances that prevented it from becoming one of the most dreaded aircraft in the Mediterranean., Macchi's C.202 Folgore (Thunderbolt) and follow-on C.205V Veltro (Greyhound) were, by some margin, the most potent Italian-built fighters fielded by the Regia Aeronautica, the Co-Belligerent Regia Aeronautica and the fascist Aeronautica Nazionale Repubblicana (AMR) in World War 2. Due to their licence-built Daimler-Benz engines, the aircraft could hold their own against the best Allied fighters in the Mediterranean and North Africa. The C.202 was the preferred mount of Italy's leading fighter pilots throughout the war, including Adriano Visconti, Luigi Gorrini, Furio Niclot Doglio and ranking Folgore ace Teresio Vittorio Martinoli, who claimed 22 individual and 14 shared victories. Packed with first-hand accounts, archival photographs, specially commissioned profile artworks and scrap views, this compelling volume, authored by Marco Mattioli, charts the service history of the inline-engined Macchi fighters through the exploits of the pilots who flew them into action over the Western Desert and in the defence of Sicily and Italy. Osprey Combat Aircraft Series Comprehensive histories of fighting aircraft and their crews, highlighting their vital role in the development of warfare in the 20th and 21st centuries, A unique source of information, researched by recognised experts and brought to life by first-hand accounts from the combat veterans themselves, Concise, authoritative text is supported by up to 30 original colour artworks, and the best archival photography from around the world Book jacket.
