The 12° Squadriglie operated in Libya. In 1918, the 3°, 14° and 15° Squadriglia operated in France. Apart from the Italian Army, original and licence-built examples were used by France (original Capronis were used in French CAP escadres, licence-built examples in CEP escadres). They were also used by the American Expeditionary Force. There has been some confusion regarding the use of the Ca3 by the British Royal Naval Air Service. The RNAS received six of the larger triplane Ca4s and did not operate the Ca3. The British Ca4s were not used operationally and were returned to Italy after the war. Some of the Ca.36Ms supplied after the war were still in service long enough to see action in Benito Mussolini's first assaults on North Africa. Variants All of the following names were applied after the war. At the time, all were known as the 300 hp by Caproni and the Ca.3 by the Army. Ca.34 and Ca.35 with a modified central nacelle to seat the two pilots in tandem and therefore improve aerodynamics. No production. Ca.36 with removable outer wing panels for ease of storage. Ca.36M or Ca.36 mod (for modificato – "modified") – a lightened and simplified variant put into production after the war. 153 were delivered between 1923 and 1927, 144 of them to the new Regia Aeronautica. Ca.36S – air ambulance version (small number converted from Ca.36Ms) Ca.39 – seaplane version. Prototype CA 211. Ca.56a – airliners created by remanufacturing war-surplus Ca.3s.
