The International Resin Modellers Association presents our IRMA Kit No.11 Campini-Caproni CC.7 (CS.11) Toscana motorjet bomber of WWII. Designed in 1942 the Toscano was powered by the same type of motors as the Campini-Caproni CC.2 (N.1) of 1940. Work was scheduled to begin until Italy reached an armistice with the Allies in 1943, however, with the establishment of the Italian Social Republic later that year, the design once more was front and center for the Aeronautica Nazionale Repubblicana (Italian Social Air Force) to continue the fight with the Axis. Work was commenced to continue with the design, however, by 1945 it was abandoned with the fall of Nazi Germany and the Italian Social Republic.
We present this kit in 1/72 with 32 resin parts including clear resin for the canopy and windows, along with interior details and metal parts for landing gear and other details. The model can be built with rotating wheels and comes with decals to create a version for the Regina Aeronautica (Royal Italian Air Force) or Aeronatucia Nazionale Repubblicana. This kit is completed in an experimental camouflage of 1944-1945.
If you are interested in a kit, we have them for US $190 + shipping, or US $160 + shipping with an IRMA Membership. The model is about the size of a B-25 Mitchell and only 30 kits have been made for the current run. It does require Super Glue to assemble, or Super Gel to add additional time for positioning parts. Not recommended for young children. To get yours, contact us at
