Do you have a source for this designation Vinz1976?

There was an Ercolani 376 divebomber concept dubbed Falco. Could this have been conflated into "F 376"?

AFAIK, the Ercolani 376 divebomber concept was penned by Ercolano Ercolani, commander of the Reparto Sperimentale di Volo a Tuffo (which became 96° Gruppo Tuffatori during the war).

My guess is that design was prepared for the same contest as the Breda 201 and Caproni Ca.355 'Tuffo'.

Where is Marco when we need the 'inside dope' on Italian projects?

Hi Guys, you Hammer !
