The Caproni Ca.3 was an Italian heavy bomber aircraft developed during World War I. Designed by Giovanni Caproni, it first flew in 1916 and was notable for its three-engine configuration, which provided significant power and payload capacity. The aircraft featured a biplane design with a distinctive large wingspan, allowing it to carry bombs over long distances. Primarily used by the Italian Air Force, the Caproni Ca.3 played a crucial role in strategic bombing missions against enemy targets. Its ability to carry a substantial bomb load made it effective in disrupting supply lines and troop movements, contributing to the overall war effort.
