Italeri Cant Z 506B Airone 1/72 scale - Model Overview

The Italeri 1/72 Cant Z 506B Airone recreates the distinctive Italian three-engine floatplane used by C.R.D.A. and the Regia Aeronautica. Noted for its largely wooden construction, the Airone handled extended maritime patrols, search and rescue work and light bombing roles with dependable performance in difficult conditions.

Upgraded kit details and historical notes

This release uses updated molds to capture the Airone's structural lines more accurately. The kit ships with a comprehensive decal sheet offering six marking choices and includes photo-etched components to lift fine surface detail. A full-colour instruction sheet walks builders through assembly for an accurate result.

Display appeal for scale collections

As a museum-style model or part of a themed display, the Cant Z 506B stands out thanks to its era-specific silhouette and versatile decal options. The kit offers both educational interest and a rewarding project for modellers focused on pre-war and World War II naval aviation.

This kit is best for modellers with some experience. The photo-etched parts and fine detailing reward careful assembly and basic experience with small metal parts is helpful.
Use thin acrylic or enamel paints with a primer base. For a convincing wooden look, apply a light brown base and wash for grain definition, then seal with a satin varnish.
Spare photo-etched sets may be available from specialist suppliers. Check parts retailers or Italeri support for compatible detail packs if you need replacements.
