Caproni Ca.335 - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

"The Caproni Ca.335 Maestrale (Mistral) was an Italian single-engined two-seat fighter-bomber/reconnaissance aircraft of the 1930s. It was designed by Caproni to meet a requirement of the Belgian Air Force, with it being planned that the aircraft would be built under licence by the Belgian company SABCA as the SABCA S.47. Only a single aircraft was built, production plans being stopped by the German invasion of Belgium in May 1940."

The SABCA 47 was tested in 1940 in France. Unfortunately, in June, when German soldiers seized Bricy airfield, they just found the burned wreck of the belgian prototype.

@PhR Many years ago I saw an image of the SABCA 47, without information of its Caproni origin. Thank you pointing out its history.
@blackkite A belated - thank you - to you as well.

Interesting engine layout. It sort of reminds me of the DH.88.
