Dewoitine D.720 – Plane Printer

The Dewoitine D.720 T3 was a French reconnaissance/cooperation aircraft built by Dewoitine in the late 1930s.

The prototype was first flown on 10 July 1939, at Toulouse-Francazals, by Marcel Doret and after the manufacturer’s flight tests, was flown to the Centre d’Essais du Matériel Aérien (CEMA) at Orléans-Bricy on 25 September 1939. Deliveries of the Potez 630 were ramping up by this time and the Potez 63.16 T3 crew trainer, was going to be available in a much shorter time-frame, leading to abandonment of the D.730.
