This is a paintable 1:144 scale model of a Pomilio PD. Also available is a Pomilo PE. Since many painters choose their own mounting system, no peg is included on the plane. Pegs can be purchased separately in the Accessories section of this catalog.

The Pomilio PC (C.I) showed promise (especially when compared to obsolete twin-boom Savoia-Pomilio SP2 and SP3s), and about 70 were made before production was switched to the improved Pomilio PD model. While Italian crews complained about the PC and PD (as they did with almost all types), the PD's 200hp Fiat A.12 engine gave the plane good performance, and it served from mid 1917 through the end of the war. The PD suffered from the same instability problems as the PC, leading to crashes. Further improvements resulted in the Pomilio PE. Probably around 431 PDs were constructed, of which 93 were dual control variants mostly used for training.

It was the failure of the S.I.A. 7b that thrust the Pomilio PD and PE into a more prominent and important role. While they types had their defects (including engine failures, wing failures, and continued instability), they also had some outstanding strengths, chiefly their speed. They could operate without fighter escort and could outrun many Austro-Hungarian single-seat scouts. Pomilio PD and PE aircraft operated with at least 29 squadriglie.
