Me too, it's like opening a little present every day seeing Birgeria's latest creation

Very appreciated cw58 and rubyjuno! Your supports are the best gift for me!

The preproduction series or series 0 of the Fiat G.55 fighter. 19 of them produced and six were later converted into series 1. These aircrafts were equipped with one 20mm MG151 through the propeller centerline, and two 13mm and two 7.7mm MGs.

lol, exactly like that!

Fiat G.55 fighter series 1. This is the production series. They improved the fire power, include three 20mm MG 151 cannons and two 13mm MGs. Less than 200 of the G.55s was produced.
PS: this icon is so far my best favorite. It took me a while to prepare it. Note the camo color patches are different on left and right.

Today I present the Fiat G.55S fighter/torpedo bomber. It's a modified G.55 series 1 that can carry a 2000 lb torpedo. The armament consists of three 20mm MG 151 cannons. Only one prototype was built in late 1944.

This is the last Fiat from me. G.56 fighter. One prototype was built in March 1944. It has a new DB 603 engine, three 20mm MG 151 cannons. The test flight showed that this fighter is better than the late war versions of Bf-109 and Fw-190 A crafts.

Heavy fighter/attacker prototypes from Savoia-Marchetti: SM-91 and SM-92. Both were developed in late 1942. Their armament were different. SM-91 has six 20mm MG 151 firing forward and one in a remote controlled turret.
SM-92 has two 20mm MG 151 and six 13mm MGs firing forward and one fixed 20mm on the horizontal tail wing firing backwards. Beside that, SM-92 can carry more bombs than SM-91.
I made these two planes a while ago, but these latest ones are way better! Note the asymmetry layout of the SM-92.

If this prototype was built in March 1944, isn't it a Italy Allies aircraft then?

Yes that could be an option!

In game we have the twin tailed Cant Z.1007 bomber. Here I have the single tailed early production type. It fills the gap.

I would like to express my gratitude for your continuous and unrelenting contributions for so many years.
Keep 'em coming

Thanks nikivdd!
Here I have a rework of the Reggiane Re.2002 fighter bomber.

This is a super simple project. The craft is Reggiane Re.2001 CN night fighter/bomber. It upgraded the fire power. The 7.7mm wing MGs were replaced by two 20mm MG 151 gun pods under the wings, and that's the only external different than the regular Re.2001. Of the 237 Re.2001 produced, 34 are the CN version.

I just drew the two lines on wings as the 20mm cannons from the original icon.

Here is the Breda Ba.65 bis attacker aircraft. The difference between this and the Ba.65 that is already in game is the Ba.65 bis is two seated, adding a gunner.

We have the Piaggio P.108 serie 1 heavy bomber in game. Here I prepared the P. 108 serie 2. The difference is that the serie 2 removed the nose defensive MG to get a slightly better flying performance. It has the dark green colored painting because of the night bombing purpose, which the serie 2 planes were mostly assigned to.

I full filled the Italian SM-79 Sparviero medium bomber family. Here are three types:
SM-79/I could only carry bombs, no torpedo.
SM-79/II is the modified version for torpedo bombing.
SM-79 bis, some times also called as SM-79/III is the final version. It improved the engine power, removed the ventral gondola, and specific for night bombing missions. This type appeared in late 1942.

From today I will update some RAF war birds, includes various rare examples and late war crafts.
Here is the Hawker Tempest Mk.II. It has a new powerful radial engine than the earlier Mk.V. They went into RAF units too late to see any combat of WWII.

When I check through the movement sound folder of this game, there is one called "Hawker Sea Fury". But we don't have this plane in game. So I decided to create and here we have the Sea Fury.
