Conceived in the early 1970s as an Italian air force trainer, the Aermacchi MB 339 maintained operational capabilities as a ground attack fighter. The MB 339 reached a maximum speed of 508 mph or 553 mph based on version and could carry up to 4,000 pounds of external load including machine gun-pods, rockets, air-to-air and air-to-surface missiles and/or bombs. There were at least nine versions of the aircraft, all of which featured two 30 mm DEFA 553 cannons.

After I received my first Postage Stamp Model MB-339 a few weeks ago, I was disappointed with rough & splotchy paint job. I know that PSM can do better so I ordered another one. (I didn’t turn it back, I kept it as a “play” model). This one didn’t disappoint, the paint was evenly applied with an attractive matt grey finish. So this one will be a display piece.

I have been buying Postage Stamp Models for years. I’m forgiving of the lack of details on much of their models. But for the size most are very well done. This one however is an exception to the normally nice finish that you find on PSM’s. My MB-339 is a recipient of a spray nozzle problem causing rough and grainy texture over the surface of the plane, worse on the underside.
