5,990 LimeAir  3 months ago

BACKGROUND

The A.1 Balilla was Italy’s only fighter to be designed and built in italy during world war 1. Though it was arrived too late to see combat in the war, the polish and soviets later used it in their own conflicts. It was first flown in 1917 and was last produced in 1924. Though disliked by many pilots due to its lower maneuverability, it had impressive power for the time due to improvements in the engine.

MISC SPECS

It came with 2 machine guns and had a blistering top speed at 140 mph / 220 kmh (but my SP version is faster lol).

No AG.

Enjoy!
