Fiat BR.20 Cicogna
#1

The Fiat BR.20 Cicogna (Italian: "stork") was a twin-engine bomber of the Italian Regia Aeronautica which saw service in the Spanish Civil War, Second Sino-Japanese War and World War II. Although the BR.20 was Italy's standard medium bomber in the mid-1930s and had proven effective in the Spanish Civil War, it was already obsolescent by the time Italy entered the war.

Although very different, some of those versions remind me of the Ju-86, I wonder how similar the performance would be. Nice looking aircraft Smile

Well the G3M took the Ju 86 as design basis that is known.
As to the BR20 no idea, but I think we can take this bird of the referance list as looking at 1Cs Friday updates:

+me.

I'm very interested in early war / pre war scenarios on "forgotten" battlefields. And this plane is sorely missed for making decent china/nomonhan/spain/greece/north africa missions/dogfightmaps.
