A radial powered, speedy monoplane fighter, it wreaked aerial havoc in the early years of WWII until better-armed and more maneuverable aircraft managed to easily counter it. It's relatively simple design compared to other Italian fighters also allowed it to enjoy a larger production run than it's other domestic contemporaries.

A rather simple little build, even for my standards, it's really much better suited as being an AI fighter. It's based on the MC.200, and other than the uniquely retracting gear, there isn't anything too special. It's more of a speedy plane than a turny one. If that's your kind of thing, then great! If not... it's a good early WWII AI plane.
