Pomilio PE

It had two open cockpits in tandem and was powered by a nose-mounted 260 hp (194 kW) Fiat A.12 engine.

It first entered service in 1917 and was found to dangerously unstable which led to an improved design the Pomilio PD.

[1] 431 PD were manufactured, including 93 dual control trainers, which were needed due to difficult flight characteristics.

It had a fully cowled engine, with a vertical radiator in front of it, what changed the plane's appearance.

[3] Changes were made throughout the production run with later aircraft fitted with synchronized forward-firing machine-guns[citation needed] as well as observer's Lewis gun.
