Starting from the C.R. 32 "Freccia" success proved by a fantastic dependability and functional efficiency during the Spanish Civil War, the Italian manufacturer Fiat developed, within the late ‘30s, the latest C.R. 42 "Falco". The newest biplane single-seat fighter had - as the predecessor - the fixed landing gear and available cabin but had been built with essential innovations such as the alloy and steel framework covered by canvass and steel panelling. Thanks to Its supercharged air-cooled Fiat A.74 radial engine the Fiat C.R. 42 was able to reach 400 Km / h. It had an exceptional manoeuvrability, a great deal valued by the Italian pilots, but suffered the "biplane" configuration limitations. It absolutely was able to successful engage the Gloster Gladiators nonetheless it ended up being soon outclassed by faster and heavily armed monoplanes because the Hawker Hurricane as well as the Supermarine Spitfire. A Few Fiat C.R. 42, and G.50 fighters and BR.20, CANT Z 1007 bombers has been used by the Italian Regia Aeronautica through the Battle of Britain in the “Corpo Aereo Italiano”.
