The Breda Ba.75 represented an Italian experimental two-seater designed for both reconnaissance and ground assault roles, developed and constructed by the Società Italiana Ernesto Breda. Only a single unit was completed, and the model did not proceed to mass production.
Development
Derived from the earlier Ba.65 design, the Ba.75 featured a somewhat larger frame and adopted a mid-wing cantilever monoplane configuration. Distinct from the Ba.65, it utilized fixed tailwheel landing gear. The aircraft was equipped with a 900 hp (670 kW) Isotta-Fraschini K.14 radial piston engine. To facilitate ground observation, the lower fuselage's underside and sides were glazed. This sole Ba.75 prototype was constructed and underwent flight testing in 1939.
