Changes
All-metal stressed-skin monoplane with an elliptical five-spar wing whose cells formed unprotected integral tanks; rejected by the Regia Aeronautica and built for export (Hungary 70, Sweden 60). The Regia Aeronautica requisitioned some for 377ª Squadriglia in Sicily, partly converted to the long-range GA (Serie III); Serie II catapult aircraft served on battleships. Dimensions are for Serie I.
