Hi! Breda Ba.27
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breda_Ba.27
"The Ba.27 was a low-wing braced monoplane with fixed tailwheel undercarriage. As originally designed, the Ba.27 had a fuselage of steel tube construction, skinned with light corrugated alloy metal, and wooden wings and tailplane. Evaluation of the two prototypes by the Regia Aeronautica in 1933 was strongly negative, resulting in an extensive redesign of the aircraft. The fuselage shape was made more rounded and the pilot's open cockpit was moved higher and forward to improve visibility. The corrugated skinning was also replaced with smooth sheet metal.
A prototype of this revised version, known as the Metallico, was first flown in June 1934, but Regia Aeronautica's appraisal was only a little more positive.
Despite the lack of domestic interest, the type was ordered by the Republic of China for use against Japan. Out of eighteen machines ordered, only eleven were actually delivered"

Wikipedia says that...
"After such engines as the 895 kW (1,200 hp) Fiat A.38, the 716 kW (960 hp) Isotta-Fraschini IF L.121, and the powerful 839 kW (1,125 hp) Isotta-Fraschini Zetra, were evaluated, the Daimler-Benz DB 601 engine was chosen, because it was compact, and allowed free dives thanks to its direct injection system."

Middle picture text says that...
The statue static (for advanced cockpit) of Ba.201 realized by the company in Pre-war phase around the dimensions of Issotta-Fraschini engine L.121 RC.40
Three side view drawing of this mock-up.(Forgot to add radiator?)

Radiator of early design was located bottom of the wing root?

Hi! Breda A.3 bomber.
http://all-aero.com/index.php/contactus/59-planes-b-c/15902-breda-a-3
"A 1924 biplane night bomber, one prototype was built with Warren truss.
First flown with 4 x 200 hp SPA 6A inline 6-cylinder engines, later modified with 2 x 400 hp Lorraine-Dietrich 12Db V-12 engines.
Wingspan: 23m"

http://www.airwar.ru/enc/bww1/bredaa3.html
Auto translation.
"A. 3-night bomber, designed by the Italian company Breda. A. 3 became the first military aircraft developed by the firm. Its first flight took place in the year 1924. The plane originally installed four 200-strong engine SPA, then they were replaced by two 400-strong Lorraine. Aircraft testing identified a number of gaps and mediocre performance. After this it was decided to create a more advanced aircraft, which led to the creation of A. 8. Stayed in a single instance of released."

Hi! Breda A.7.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breda_A.7

"A.7LD prototypes - Two prototypes, powered by a 298 kW (400 hp) Lorraine-Dietrich piston engine. (2 built).
A.7 - Production version. Two-seat reconnaissance aircraft, powered by a 380 kW (510 hp) Isotta Fraschini Asso 500 piston engine, and fitted with a revised cooling system and empennage (12 built).
A.7 Raid (later A.16 or Ba.16) - Long-range version, powered by Isotta Fraschini Asso 500 AQ engine. Engine later changed to a Bristol Jupiter VII and an extra seat added."

A.7LD : small vertical tail stabilizer
A.7 production model : Larger vertical tail stabilizer compared with prototype
A.7 seaplane : more larger vertical tail stabilizer compared with A.7 production model
A.7 Riad(A.16) powered by Isotta Fraschini Asso 500 AQ engine : Vertical tail stabilizer is same as A.7 production model?
Ba.16 with Bristol Jupiter VII engine : clean shape vertical tail stabilizer

Hi!
http://www.airwar.ru/enc/other1/bredaa7.html
A.7LD radiator is located nose side of the fuselage.
A.7 production model radiator is located bottom of the fuselage. Also you can see Isotta Fraschini Asso 500 engine air intake and engine exhaust nozzles at nose side of the fuselage.
Also you can see nose radiator of A.7 Raid (later A.16 or Ba.16) - Long-range version, powered by Isotta Fraschini Asso 500 AQ engine.

The wreck in the photo looks way closer to a CANT Z.1018 than any Breda aircraft.

I does indeed. Perhaps one of the pre-series Z.1018s went with Zappata to Sesto San Giovanni to aid with development of the all-metal BZ 30x Leone family?
 
Yes very important counter measure.
 
Returning to Breda aircraft... I added this yesterday to my reply #14 but now it has disappeared :confused:

Lucamax's link to that LombardiaBeniCulturali gallery reveals a number images suggesting series production of the mystery aircraft. The images aren't clear enough to tell whether we're looking at wooden or metal-skinned airframes.

There is also a photo of what looks like the rudderless tail of a Z.1018 (complete with swastika).

So, what's going on? Did Breda actually build the pre-series Z.1018s? Or are we looking at production of the BZ 301 Leone III? (It can't be the BZ 303 Leone II, its drawings suggest that this pictured aircraft's cockpit opening is wrong).

Apparently production work began on the BZ 301 but none were completed. These may be some of those none.
