It was powered by a single engine installed in the middle of the main-plane and had a crew of 4-5 men. It served with the Italian Regia Aeronautica during World War II, as a reconnaissance aeroplane. During its debut in 1934, it set a world distance record. However it was obsolete by 1940, but was still used throughout World War II, suffering many losses.
