Overview

Discover in this new Aviation Art & History monograph the controversial story of the Italian assault aircraft Breda Ba.65/Ba.65 Bis, which was part of the first modernization process of the Chilean Air Force in 1938. Across 24 pages, the author transports us to a turbulent era in which a defensive turret and a few access panels are the only remaining traces of this attack aircraft that operated between 1939 and 1942. This monograph details how Italian-built fleets-such as the Breda Ba.65 and the Nardi Fn-305-suffered a high accident rate, claiming the lives of six crew members and resulting in the total loss of ten aircraft, while also facing significant logistical challenges amid the outbreak of World War II. Enriched with more than twenty photographs and detailed illustrations, this monograph not only recounts historical events but also pays tribute to the engineering and courage of those who took to the skies during times of great change.
