variants with their own articles=The Ansaldo A.120 (sometimes called the Fiat A.120, since Fiat bought Ansaldo). was a reconnaissance aircraft developed in Italy in the 1920s. It was a conventional, parasol-wing monoplane with fixed tailskid undercarriage which accommodated the pilot and observer in tandem open cockpits. The design was based on a wing developed for the Ansaldo A.115 and the fuselage of the Dewoitine D.1 fighters that Ansaldo had built under licence. The type was operated in modest quantities by the Italian Air Force, and was exported to the air forces of Austria and Lithuania, the latter's machines remaining in service until the Soviet annexation of the country.
