Caproni Ca.72The Caproni Ca.72 was an Italian night bomber designed to reequip the post-World War I Italian Air Force.Design and developmentThe Ca.72 was, overall, similar to the Caproni Ca.66 and Caproni Ca.67 in overall design. However, the Ca.72 differed from the Ca.67 in the addition of an SPA 6A engine, mounted as a pusher on the upper mainplane centre-line. Despite these changes, flight tests offered only a increase in speed over the Ca.66. The Regia Aeronautica did not order the aircraft into production, and the Ca.72 was abandoned in favor of the Caproni Ca.73.
