It entered into service in1936 and was characterized by its metal frame and retractable landinggear. Modern and fast for the period, it was deployed by the "AviazioneLegionaria" and had its baptism of fire in 1937 during the Spanish CivilWar. In September 1940, the "Corpo Aereo Italiano", consisting of the13th and 43rd Stormo da Bombardamento were similarly equipped with theBR-20.
