Savoia-Marchetti S.79 Sparviero Bomber Units (Osprey)

Initially developed by Savoia-Marchetti as a transport, the aircraft had evolved into a dedicated medium bomber by the time the S.79-I made its combat debut in the Spanish Civil War in 1936.
During World War 2, it became Italy's most successful bomber, and the most produced, with around 1370 built between 1936 and early 1944.

Although initially hampered by poor tactics, the S.79 bomber crews nonetheless scored sunk a number of Allied vessels, and provided a constant threat to Allied sailors in the Mediterranean in the early stages of the war.
In East Africa and the Red Sea the Sparvieri were the most modern bombers in-theatre, proving a challenge to RAF and SAAF biplane fighters.

Using specially commissioned full-colour artwork, first-hand accounts and historic photographs, this volume chronicles the history of the S.79's war in the Mediterranean, North African, Balkan, and East African theatres.

Savoia-Marchetti S.79 Sparviero Torpedo-bomber Units (Osprey)

Italy's most successful wartime bomber, the S.79 saw combat with the Regia Aeronautica in France, Yugoslavia, Greece, North Africa, East Africa and in the Mediterranean.

Illustrated with 30 full colour profiles of the main units that saw action with either the Regia Aeronautica or the ANR, this title is the first of two volumes to cover the development history and wartime performance of the S.79.

SIAI-Marchetti SF-260: Flying with air forces around the world (Duke Hawkins)

This beautiful Duke Hawkins photo book extensively presents the SIAI-Marchetti SF-260, a training aircraft in service with more than 30 air forces around the world.
The book contains not only action shots, but also many "walkaround" photos that show details of the aircraft from different angles. Chapters on cockpit, fuselage, landing gear and maintenance work.

The series "Aircraft in Detail" arose from the collaboration between pilots, aircraft technicians and modellers. This volume (No. 16) on the SIAI-Marchetti SF-260 is illustrated with a large number of very high quality color photographs, most of which have never been published before.
