The Macchi C.205 Veltro was a Second World War-era fighter aircraft designed and produced by the Italian aircraft manufacturer Aeronautica Macchi. Along with the Reggiane Re.2005 Sagittario and Fiat G.55 Centauro, the Macchi C.205 was one of the three “Serie 5” Italian fighters built around the powerful German-sourced Daimler-Benz DB 605 engine. The Macchi C.205 garnered a strong reputation amongst both Allied and Axis pilots. It has been widely regarded as one of the best Italian aircraft of the Second World War. The C.205 proved to be extremely effective in aerial combat, being responsible for the destruction of a large number of Allied bombers. The C. 205 proved capable of engaging fighters such as the North American P-51D Mustang on equal terms. This performance reportedly encouraged the Luftwaffe to use a number of these aircraft to equip one Gruppe. The Macchi C.205 Veltro was produced from 1942 to 1944. The aircraft was operated from 1943 to 1947.
