Caproni-Camini N1 CC.2
he N1 (CC.2) model was designed as a large aircraft that can accommodate a crew of two-personnel. It was traditionally designed as a low-wing monoplane with a single vertical tail surface. An open intake was located in the extreme forward position while the extreme rear has an exhaust that could be jettisoned during flight. This WW2 aircraft also featured fully retractable landing gears and had straight-wings. Since it was not a full-blown turbojet aircraft, the power of the N1’s lone piston engine can only allow it to achieve a top speed of 233 miles per hour.The N1 was a plane that was mostly used to demonstrate jet technology rather than become a practical fighter plane. Because of this, this WW2 Italian aircraft was never fitted with armaments. In effect, the N1 (CC.2) did not do much for the Italian war campaign except proving the concept of jet propulsion and bringing Italy closer to the jet-age technology.

@PositivePlanes thx it was a lot harder to balance than I thought it would be. It’s still a bit touchy on takeoff but great in the air.
