Ambrosini SAI.403 Dardo – Panzer Printer

The Ambrosini SAI.403 Dardo (“Dart”) was a light fighter aircraft built in Italy during World War II.

The single prototype (MM.518) was seized by the Germans and evaluated by the Luftwaffe at Vergiate. Japanese pilots then stationed in Germany were also given a chance to fly the aircraft, with the result that it was ordered into production by both Heinkel and Mitsubishi. None of these flew before the end of the war either.
