The Piaggio P.108 was an Italian heavy bomber or attack aircraft that first flew in 1939, powered by four engines and designed for long-range strategic operations. With a 32-meter wingspan, 22.3-meter fuselage, and 3,295-kilometer range, it represented the pinnacle of Italian bomber development. The four-engine configuration provided substantial payload capacity for deep penetration missions. Its service during the Second World War demonstrated Italian capability to design and produce competitive heavy bombers.
