I.Ae.30 Pallavicino II
    Similar to the Pallavicino I but it featured lengthened swept wings and a more square looking tail. It was to be a light bomber/attacker with two crew: a pilot and a navigator. The navigator was to be seated either in a glazed nose or behind the pilot (then with a solid nose). Armament included four 20mm Hispano-Suiza autocannons and two bombs of 900 or 1,000 kg each in an internal bomb bay. It could also carry twenty 75mm air-to-ground rockets. None built.[2]

This would actually be perfect for an alternate history Italy. The designer, Cesare Pallavicino, could have designed it while still in Italy assuming they hadn't outright lost the war, probably while working with Caproni.
