Historical Information

The Caproni Ca.310 was a twin-engine aircraft designed for reconnaissance and light bombing missions. In 1938, Norway purchased eight of these machines, which went into service quickly due to the impending conflict. In April 1940, during the German invasion, Norwegian Caproni Ca.310s were used for reconnaissance missions and to support ground units, making this model an interesting exhibit for enthusiasts of World War II military history.
