| − | + | The '''{{Specs|name}}''' was an important upgrade over the original BR.20 Cicogna, in fact it was the most widely produced variant of this bomber. The upgrades consisted of a redesigned nose with a smaller glass area for the gunner and more glass at the lower section of the nose. It also had a redesigned defensive armament, now introducing access to 12.7 mm HMGs, far superior to the prior 7.7 mm LMGs. The BR.20 was Italy's most predominant bomber during World War II, however it was considered outdated by the time the war started, but even with that in mind, it served with Italy between 1936 and 1945. It also served with Japan, although it was not very well regarded and was retired to training duties in 1941. | |

| − | The '''{{Specs|name}}''' | + | It was introduced in [[Update 1.93 "Shark Attack"]]. Just like its predecessor, the '''{{Specs|name}}''' is a very sluggish bomber with poor speed, although it is a very stable airframe in simulator battles. It features a redesigned nose that has minimal effect on the battlefield, but it now also has access to a gunner with a 12.7 mm HMG, far more lethal than the 7.7 mm machine guns. The bomb load is also quite good, being able to carry a little more explosive mass than other bombers at its BR. However, the flight performance and the lack of armour make this bomber very likely to get intercepted at the start of the match and the mediocre defensive armament make it really hard to survive in situations where multiple fighters are targeting you. |

Description
The B.R.20M M1 was an important upgrade over the original BR.20 Cicogna, in fact it was the most widely produced variant of this bomber. The upgrades consisted of a redesigned nose with a smaller glass area for the gunner and more glass at the lower section of the nose. It also had a redesigned defensive armament, now introducing access to 12.7 mm HMGs, far superior to the prior 7.7 mm LMGs. The BR.20 was Italy's most predominant bomber during World War II, however it was considered outdated by the time the war started, but even with that in mind, it served with Italy between 1936 and 1945. It also served with Japan, although it was not very well regarded and was retired to training duties in 1941.
It was introduced in Update 1.93 "Shark Attack". Just like its predecessor, the B.R.20M M1 is a very sluggish bomber with poor speed, although it is a very stable airframe in simulator battles. It features a redesigned nose that has minimal effect on the battlefield, but it now also has access to a gunner with a 12.7 mm HMG, far more lethal than the 7.7 mm machine guns. The bomb load is also quite good, being able to carry a little more explosive mass than other bombers at its BR. However, the flight performance and the lack of armour make this bomber very likely to get intercepted at the start of the match and the mediocre defensive armament make it really hard to survive in situations where multiple fighters are targeting you.

History
Designed by Fiat's Celestino Rosatelli in the mid 1930s and first flying 10 February 1936, the "Bombardiere Rosatelli 20" (B.R.20) Cicogna (Stork) was an advanced design with a first for Italy all metal structure of duralumin. The fuselage was a space frame structure with the forward half covered in sheets of aluminum and the rear half fabric covering, including all the tail surfaces. The wing was all clad in metal, but the ailerons were also fabric covered. This may seem unusual compared to better known modern semi-monocoque structure, but it was a very common and effective design for the 1930s.
Typical with Italian aircraft was the retractable turrets and wind driven electrical turbine which was also retractable. The engines and propeller were domestic modifications of foreign makes, and the armament was Italian Breda-SAFAT machine guns in Breda designed turrets. Overall it proved to be a successful machine for the Italians and very competitive with foreign types then in service.
Early on it was earning awards for long distance and payload competitions and was an easy-to-fly stable platform. During the Spanish Civil War it did well with very few losses. This caught the attention of the Japanese Army, who had an urgent need for bombers, and the B.R.20 was chosen after a cursory review of other candidates. Eventually the Japanese purchased 82 fully equipped bombers, a huge purchase for the time. It served well in China, and was almost as good as the first of the Ki-21s, however the defending fighters were more numerous and better than in Spain and losses mounted.
After war in Europe broke out and France was defeated, Italy sent a contingent of B.R.20s with fighter escorts to attack England with Germany. There the age of the Cicogna was apparent as losses were extremely heavy. Not even 4 years old, these bombers where clearly vulnerable to and rapidly being outclassed by new aircraft like the Ju 88 and A-20. Unfortunately the Italians were slow to make a better replacement, and the B.R.20 had to soldier on.
