The Breda A.2 was a compact sport and touring airplane created in Italy during 1921.

Design and development

For its era, the A.2 featured a sophisticated design as a low-wing cantilever monoplane equipped with a fixed tailskid undercarriage. The aircraft accommodated the pilot and passenger in tandem, open-air cockpits. Initially, it was powered by an inverted inline engine delivering 97 kW (130 hp). Subsequently, a more potent variant was engineered for reconnaissance roles, fitted with an upgraded 187 kW (250 hp) powerplant.
