[Edit] And yes, this is for the BR-20.
Also, thanks everyone for the other answers, but keep it coming!

Hmm.. This actually concerns me alot to hear. Especially that last part about the torpedo being for the BR.20

I did not know a lot about the BR.20, but since your request have done a study of it on various sites on the internet. On every site it is said, that the BR.20 was never used as a torpedo-bomber and never was concidered for this role.
Do anyone or you Luthier have another angel on this?
Here is some of the homepages I have visited:
