The FMA AeMB.2 Bombi was a
bomber aircraft developed in
Argentina in the mid-1930s. It was a
low-wingcantilevermonoplane of conventional configuration. It was fitted with fixed tailwheel undercarriage, the main units of which were covered by long, "trouser"-style fairings. The initial AeMB.1 configuration was fitted with a dorsal machine gun turret, later removed from the AeMB.2 to improve stability. Fifteen production examples saw service with the
Argentine Air Force between 1936 and 1945. Two were lost to air accidents.
