Fiat BR-20

The B.R.20 was a very advanced aircraft when it appeared in 1936. It was a low-wing monoplane with twin tail fins. The B.R.20 was used in the Spanish civil war, and 85 were sold to Japan. In W.W.II service the old aircraft did not so well, and those that joined German operations in the Battle of Britain and against the USSR suffered heavy losses.
