Breda Ba.75

The Ba 75 was an experimental prototype produced in 1939 for both the reconnaissance and ground attack roles. Bearing a family resemblance to the Ba 65, the Ba 75 was a shoulder-wing monoplane with a stalky, fixed and liberally strutted undercarriage, powered by the 900-hp (670kW) Isotta-Fraschini K.14 radial.

The bottom and lower sides of the fuselage were glazed to allow observation of the ground.

One prototype was built, intended to use structural components of the Ba.65. The only Ba.75 was built and test flown in 1939.
