About product

Ansaldo SVA.5 1:48 - Smer

An injection-molded plastic kit of the Italian Ansaldo SVA.5 biplane of the First World War in 1:48 scale from Smer. It is a classic kit of an older cut with raised surface detail; for the exact contents of the package and the markings on offer, follow the enclosed instructions. The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted.

The real subject

The Ansaldo SVA.5 was an Italian biplane powered by a strong inline engine, which stood out for its high speed, range and ceiling. It was originally created as a fighter, but because of its lesser agility it proved itself mainly as a fast reconnaissance aircraft and light bomber. It made its name on long-distance flights at the end of the First World War and was among the fastest machines of its day.

Building and painting tips

Seat the interplane struts precisely and do not forget the rigging; add the bracing wires only once the model has been varnished. An older mold with raised surface detail calls for the seams to be filled and sanded down with care. Spray the base coat over a primer; the wooden and fabric surfaces of the fuselage come into their own with the shades of varnished wood and a fine wash.

Who the model is for

  • For fans of Italian aircraft of the First World War
  • For collectors of biplanes in 1:48 scale
  • For modelers who want to try rigging and working with an older mold
  • For lovers of the fast reconnaissance aircraft of their era

The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

It was created as a fighter, but thanks to its high speed and range it made its mark mainly as a fast reconnaissance aircraft and light bomber.

It is 1:48 scale; the package corresponds to an older kit with raised surface detail.

For a faithful look on a biplane, yes; the bracing wires between the wings are added from fine thread, usually only once the model has been varnished.
