The Fiat CR.32 was a biplane fighter aircraft designed by Celestino Rosatelli and produced by Fiat Aviazione in Italy in the 1930s. It was one of the most successful Italian fighters of the interwar period, and saw action in several conflicts, including the Spanish Civil War and the Second World War.
The CR.32 was derived from the earlier CR.30, which had a similar structure of metal tubes covered with fabric. The CR.32 had a smaller wing span and a more powerful Fiat A.30.RA engine, which gave it a top speed of 375 km/h. The plane was armed with two 12.7 mm or 7.7 mm Breda-SAFAT machine guns, and could carry 12 anti-personnel bombs.
The CR.32 was highly maneuverable and agile, and performed well in aerobatic displays. It was also appreciated by its pilots for its robustness and reliability. The first prototype flew in April 1933, and the first production order came from China, which bought 16 planes in 1933. However, only nine were delivered by 1935, and they fought against the Japanese invasion.
The main user of the CR.32 was Italy, which ordered 282 planes in 1935, followed by 283 more of the improved CR.32bis variant, which had a 600 hp engine and better armament. The CR.32ter and CR.32quater variants were also produced, with minor modifications and upgrades. The CR.32quater was the final version, and was exported to Paraguay, Venezuela, Hungary and Austria.
The most famous use of the CR.32 was in the Spanish Civil War, where it formed the backbone of the Nationalist air force and the Italian volunteer corps. A total of 377 CR.32s were deployed in Spain, where they achieved more than 300 victories against the Republican forces. The CR.32 also saw action in East Africa, where it faced British biplanes.
The CR.32 was gradually replaced by more modern fighters, such as the CR-42, as the Second World War progressed. However, some planes remained in service until 1957, mainly for training and acrobatic purposes. The CR.32 was also built under license in Spain as the Hispano HA-132-L Chirri, which was exported to China, Hungary and some South American countries.
