Caproni Ca.124

The Caproni Ca.124 was a 1930s single-engine Italian reconnaissance and bomber seaplane. It was a cantilever mid-wing monoplane of mixed construction with a corrugated-skinned fuselage and a conventional cantilever tail, the tailplane set at mid-fuselage and the pilot cockpit forward of the wing leading edge. It was a floatplane, carried on metal floats each fixed to the wings by pairs of N-form struts. Power came from a 670 kilowatt Isotta Fraschini Asso XI.RC15, a water-cooled upright V-12 engine supercharged to keep its power up to 1,500 metres, driving a three-bladed propeller, and the bombs were carried inside the fuselage below the wing. The listed dimensions are a length of 13.8 metres and a wingspan of 18.9 metres, with a maximum speed of 325 kilometres per hour.
