**********************************
Officine Meccaniche Reggiane Re.2002 Overhaul

**********************************



As per title, this is a little overhaul for the Re.2002.

You may ask, was it really needed? Well, let's have an in deep look:



On the left you can see the stock Re.2002 and on the right the overhauled Re.2002.

Why my overhauled version looks longer than the stock one? As you all can check, every documents regarding this plane states that its lenght was 8.16 m.

So...what's the big difference?

Everything seems to be pretty much were it should have been, but looking at photos of the real deal, you can notice a little detail (don't take into account the little bulges surrounding the engine, it should be a pic of a Serie II aircraft):



Let's have a look at a drawing for comparision:



And now, let's check everything in 3ds Max:



How is this possible? Were did those 30.5 cm go?

Elementary, my dear Watson!

Here is a drawing of the Re.2000:



Look at the space between the cowling and the leading edge of the wing.

Yes. The stock Re.2002 we have in game, is a frankenplane of the Re.2000


I've changed a lot of other little details (like the shape of the bulge behind the canopy, the canopy itself, a venturi tube on the side of the fuselage, the engine intake...) but most of the work has been done in order to give the Ariete its correct lenght.

So...enjoy!

The model looks really good shaped now!!

Thanks for your work for the Regia!!!

Only little bugs are:

On 409 a missing hook for the 500kgs bomb....maybe you should refere to the 409 conversion for the correct fix.

And on 410-412 the 250 and 500 kgs bombs are placed too high and touch the belly while in the original are well centere on the release rack....

All the very best!
