The medium bomber CANT Z. 1007 Alcione, designed by Filippo Zappata, entered service in the late 1930s and was widely used by the Royal Air Force during World War II. Featuring a wooden frame, it had the typical Italian three-engine configuration. In more detail, the three Piaggio P.XI radial engines with 1,000 hp guaranteed the CANT Z. 1007 to reach a top speed of 450 km\/h. The aircraft could carry 1.2kg of offensive cargo housed in the inner compartment. The crew typically consisted of five men, who could climb to six with the addition of the photographic operator for reconnaissance and maritime patrol missions. It was used predominantly in operational theatres in the Mediterranean, the Balkans and North Africa and is often regarded as the best medium bomber in the Royal Air Force.
