The BR 20 "Cicogna" low wing medium bomber was developed by the Italian
aircraft manufacturer Fiat during the 1930’s. It entered into service in
1936 and was characterized by its metal frame and retractable landing
gear. Modern and fast for the period, it was deployed by the "Aviazione
Legionaria" and had its baptism of fire in 1937 during the Spanish Civil
War. In September 1940, the "Corpo Aereo Italiano", consisting of the
13th and 43rd Stormo da Bombardamento were similarly equipped with the
BR-20. The Stormi were stationed in Belgium and supported the Luftwaffe
during the Battle of Britain. Despite operational comparisons with
modern R.A.F. fighters that exposed the BR-20’s limits, it was used for
the duration of WW2 on various fronts by several Regia Aeronautica bomber squadrons.
