Explore the Cockpit of the Historic Savoia-Marchetti SM.95

The Savoia-Marchetti SM.95 was a three-engine medium bomber designed and built by the Italian company Savoia-Marchetti. It was used by the Regia Aeronautica (Italian Royal Air Force) during World War II. The SM.95 had a crew of four and was armed with three 12.7 mm (.5 in) machine guns and up to 2,200 kg (4,850 lb) of bombs.

The SM.95 was a development of the earlier SM.84 bomber. It had a number of improvements over the SM.84, including a more powerful engine, a larger wingspan, and a more streamlined fuselage. The SM.95 was also the first Italian bomber to be equipped with a retractable landing gear.
