The '''BR.20 DR''' is a Rank I Italian bomber with a battle rating of 1.7. It was introduced in [[Update 1.69 "Regia Aeronautica"]].
 +
 
 +
The BR.20 has a superb bomb load and is quite strong, being able to soak up a bit more damage than other comparable bombers. The defensive armament has excellent coverage, however the dorsal gunner is quite exposed and commonly gets hit in combat. It not only looks but also flies like a brick, this is a very slow plane and in arcade and realistic, because these game modes are so short in time length, by the time you reach your bombing target the match may already be almost over! The BR.20 is still however quite a treat to fly and is stable and well suited in simulator.

The BR.20 DR is a Rank I Italian bomber with a battle rating of 1.7. It was introduced in Update 1.69 "Regia Aeronautica".

The BR.20 has a superb bomb load and is quite strong, being able to soak up a bit more damage than other comparable bombers. The defensive armament has excellent coverage, however the dorsal gunner is quite exposed and commonly gets hit in combat. It not only looks but also flies like a brick, this is a very slow plane and in arcade and realistic, because these game modes are so short in time length, by the time you reach your bombing target the match may already be almost over!

  • Terrible Climb Rate

History

Describe the history of the creation and combat usage of the aircraft in more detail than in the introduction. If the historical reference turns out to be too big, take it to a separate article, taking a link to an article about the vehicle and adding a block "/ historical reference" (example: https://wiki.warthunder.com/Name-vehicles/historical reference) and add a link to it here using the main template. Be sure to include links to sources at the end of the article.

Media

An excellent addition to the article will be video guides, as well as screenshots from the game and photos.
