Having started this discussion in Re 2000 topic, I decided to realize a profile of the Caproni Ca-313 in RAF 1940 camouflage.
The camo is based upon that one standard for Blenheim Mk1 supposing that RAF would utilize the Caproni in the same role of light bomber/recce.

In this case I suppose that the Ca-313 would assume the denomination of Ca-313GB (Gran Bretagna - Great Britain) in analogy of the Ca-313F for France.

Enjoy it! ;)

I've been getting ready for building an Italarei Ca313 in British colors based upon an article in the July, 1971 issue of Air Enthusiast, the title of the article being "The Caproni that nearly joined the RAF", and have even thought of having an Anson model next to it.
 
The Ca311 was comparable to the Anson, and had 7 cylinder radial engines, and the first contract was for 100 311s, to be used as trainers. The only difference between the 311 and 313 are the engines, inverted V12s. And as trainers in the RAF, I'm pretty sure there might be some field mods of engine swaps with Ansons(I've been thinking along the lines of both servibg together, were that possible)
