Italian Paracadutisti Platoon

Drop into battle with the Italian Paracadutisti Platoon!

Amongst the best troops available to Italian commanders were the Paracadutisti – the airborne troops of the Regio Esercito.

This box contains 30 infantry figures in M41 paratrooper uniforms with which you can assemble a wide variety of Paracadutisti infantry units and weapon teams. Each sprue provides a plethora of weapons from the ubiquitous short Carcano rifle, to the popular Beretta Model 38 submachine gun, and the unique compact Lanciafiamme 41 d’assalto flamethrower. There is also a bounty of extra equipment, including improvised anti-tank grenades and the iconic paratrooper webbing and vests.

As if that wasn't enough, there's also a complete set of additional heads wearing berets with which you can build the feared X Arditi special forces!

Units that can be assembled from this box from ‘Armies of Italy’ include:

Platoon leader
Medic
Folgore & Nembo Paratrooper squads
10th Arditi Regiment squad
Guastatori Engineer squad
Flamethrower team
This kit is also suitable for making a variety of scouts and forward observers or can be combined with many other kits - the possibilities are endless!
