Waiting for Caproni Vizzola machines -  but in 1/72 and injected...  :( BTW, the F6 was only manufactured as a couple of prototypes, whereas the predecessors,  F4 and F5 were the  short production variants.

Frankly speaking there were :

F.4 - two prototypes one with Isotta Fraschini Asso, second with DB 601A (German one, not Alfa Romeo-built)

F.5 - two prototypes and 11 pre-series a/c (used in combat), all with Fiat A.74 engines

F.6M - single prototype with DB 605A (German one, not Fiat-built)

F.6Z - single prototype with Isotta Fraschini Zeta

Cheers

I would echo that this is the perfect scale, at least for me as I have quite a few other Italian fighters in this scale.  And it is a very interesting subject - I would build this.

It looks like SBS will do the F.4 and F.5 in 1/72 resin............ eventually. Their kits are quite nice.

Looks very promising, the quality of SBS kits is very high (I already build Farman 170 and Caudron 600 by this company and have one more : Latecore 290 in stash). BTW - there are already resin kits in 1/72 of Caproni Vizzola by LF  (https://www.mojehobby.pl/products/Caproni-Vizzola-F.4.htmlhttps://www.mojehobby.pl/products/Caproni-Vizzola-F.6M.html ) , The injected kit would be welcome...

Vespa Model Kits· 

Apologies for the delay in communication, there is important news regarding the Caproni Vizzola F.6 and F.6M kits: There has been a delay in the production caused by personal issues affecting the person in charge of casting that caused him to be unable to complete the kits production in the originally expected time nor the reasonable future. Therefore I am forced to shift the production to Hungary, which will cost me more money and a delay in the shipping schedule but will ensure me that the product will be finished in the expected quality.

To those friends who pre-ordered the item, I will be in contact but please let me know if you will like a refund or are you willing to wait´till mid-August.

Thank you for your understanding and patience.

Amaru
