This former USAF F-16A was delivered from the 309th AMARG storage depot at Davis Monthan (AZ) via the Ogden Air Logistics Center at Hill AFB (UT) for refubishment to the Aeronautica Militare Italiana on 15 March 2001. The aircraft returned to the USA on 28 May 2012 and is now stored again at the 309th.

The oldest existing Spad in the world faces a younger example in Hangar Troster. This one was Fulco Ruffo di Calabria's aircraft, who scored 20 victories in WW1. There is an imprint on the airframe showing it was manufactured in September 1916.

One of two Spad VIIs in Hangar Troster, this plane was flown by ace Ernesto Cabruna and wears visible patches that cover bullet holes from combat. It was recovered in a delapidated state and beautifully restored, showing the markings of the 77a Squadriglia. The serial is not visibly worn.

Well over a hundred AC.2 (Ansaldo-Caccia 2) were constructed in Italy, being the license-built version of the Dewoitine D.1ter. In 1925, its all-metal structure was quite revolutionary. The serial was not visible on the museum's example.

Macchi's first attempt to design from scratch a seaplane that would win Italy the Schneider Trophy was a huge success. Two trainers, three racers and a static airframe were developed, built and flown well within a year. One of the 600 hp trainer versions crashed with fatal results, but this 800 hp race version won the 1926 Trophy in the USA at an average speed of nearly 400 km/h (250 mph).

Fiat's try at the 1929 Schneider Trophy proved too ambitious, as its attempted 1:1 power to weight ratio racer turned out unstable and both prototypes crashed. In order to still take part in the race, this copy of the second proto (MM130) was built, using parts of a static airframe. It was sent to the competition but eventually did not participate in the race.

The M.C.72 represents the culmination of high speed floatplane development in Italy. Its Fiat AS.6 engine consists of two coupled V12 blocks that delivered a maximum of 3100 hp to two contra-rotating propellers. After serious initial problems, this plane became the world speed record holder for five years. In 1934, it reached 709 km/h (441 mph) averaged over three passes, a record for prop-driven seaplanes that still stands in 2019. All the gold-coloured surfaces are water and oil radiators.

This was the third of four racing seaplane types built by Macchi, with the intent of repeating Italy's Schneider Trophy victories, last in 1926. In 1929 however, the M.67 suffered many severe problems with grave results for its pilots. Initially recoved as a fuselage only, the one on display is still a fascinating power machine with its surface radiators and science fiction-like engine cowling.

These are the only genuine S.55 parts remaining in Italy of some 240 of these impressive double hull flying boats. A formation of 24 S.55X completed an 18600 km Atlantic round-trip to the USA in 1933, after 14 S.55TA flew to Brazil in 1930-1931. On display are the central part of the left hull, a tail rudder and an engine. The hull still shows partial markings of the 199a Squadriglia, 94° Gruppo, based at Orbetello.

The Ro.43 maritime reconnaisance plane, ship-launched from a catapult, had great range and ample speed but lacked strength and stability at sea. The sole remaining example was discovered as a wreck in 1972. It has been completely restored and now shines in the colours of the 'Scuola Idroricognizione' at Orbetello, where it was retired in December 1950.

Nicknamed the 'Caproncino', the Ca.100 was a derivative of the D.H. 60 Cirrus Moth. Caproni and four other factories delivered 675 production aircraft as trainers to the Regia Aeronautica. The museum acquired this one in 2007 and displays it in the mid-1930s colours of the basic flying school in Florence.

One of 16 Ro.37s operated by the Afghan Kingdom during 1937-1941. Discovered as a mere wreck at a Kabul scrapyard and flow to Italy by AMI C-130 in 2006. Original identity discovered during restoration, but the MM plate was stolen thereafter... The 'bis' version was an improvement over the original, powered by a radial instead of an inline engine. As exhibited, the type was operated by Italy in Ethiopia.

One of the very best biplane (actually sesquiplane) fighters ever, the C.R.42 had to compete in the new monoplane era of WW2. The museum's example is a composite airframe and partly a replica, built using 60% original parts from at least four Swedish aircraft and some other sources. Painted as 'MM5643' it represents a Rhodes-based Falco of the 162a Squadriglia.
