Piaggio P.108 (The Italian Wannabe B-17)

Each episode delivers a deep-dive engineering and operational analysis of a single aircraft. Go beyond mainstream history to discover how these legendary warbirds were designed, built, and modified for the crucible of combat. From legendary fighters and heavy bombers to overlooked cutting-edge prototypes, we cross-reference official military logs, design development records, and pilot memoirs to separate myth from historical fact. We also track down the rare survivors still in existence today, keeping these incredible engineering marvels alive.
