LOL! Yeah the Fiat G.50 Freccia was the first monoplane of the Regia Aeronautica, low wing, all metal. Not a complete underdog, but very handicapped against Spits and even Hurries in terms of armament, R/T equipment and engine. It took the skills and motivation of the Finnish pilots to achieve 177 victories for the loss of 41 Freccias against the VVS.
And it took the Mc.202 to partially recover the technical disadvantage, while the excellent G.55 Centauro and Mc.205 Veltro arrived too late and in too low quantities.
But again, the G.50 cries for an FM update!
