Its wing had a rectangular-plan central piece, occupying about one-third of the span, and outer straight tapered panels with rounded tips.
Originally the cockpit was open, though with a long, unstepped, multi-paned glazing ahead of the seat; later this was replaced by an enclosing multi-framed canopy that merged aft into the fuselage.
The tail unit was rather similar to that of the earlier Falco, with a single piece, all moving elevator with a straight leading edge and a semi-elliptical trailing edge and a small triangular fin which supported a much larger, tall balanced rudder, essentially triangular in shape but with rounded vertices.
Hinged above the elevator trailing edge, which had a large cut-out for its movement, the rudder extended down to the keel where it was protected by a small, faired underfin/tail bumper.
[2][Notes 1] Near the start of World War II there were plans to produce a version with a 1.2 m (3 ft 11 in) span increase, the Orione 2, but this was never built.
