Caproni Ca.44

The Caproni Ca.44 was the first in the series of large biplane Caproni Ca.5 bombers. The Ca.5's were somewhat larger than the Caproni Ca.3 bombers that preceded them. The Ca.44 went into service in early 1918 and served through the end of the war, with 255 of the various types built. It was reportedly harder to maintain than the Ca.3's.

French Production
The French had moderate success at the license-produced Caproni Ca.3 and they may have also produced some Caproni 5's in the form of the C.E.P.3 BN3. They also purchased at least twenty directly from Italy in early 1918, and those were redesignated the CAP.3 BN3.
