Fiat G.55
The Fiat G-55 Centauro, arguably the best Italian production fighter of the Second World War, was designed around requirements issued by the Direzione Generale Costruzioni of the Ministero in 1941, which intended to provide the Regia Aeronautica with a first line fighter equal to any being produced by the Allies. In June of 1943 the G-55 began leaving the assembly line. It was powered by a Fiat R.A. 1050 R.C. Tifone, a license built 1,400hp Daimler-Benz DB 605A engine and armed with one engine mounted and two wing mounted mounted 20mm Mauser MG 151 cannons and two fuselage mounted Breda Safat 12.7mm machine guns. Flown by both Italian and German pilots in mock combat against German aircraft the G-55 out performed both the Fw 190A and the Messerschmitt Bf 109G. Regia Aeronautica now had a first class fighter with the fire power to bring down any adversary.   isoliti4gatti
