-A scaled-up version of the [[Breda Model 31 (13.2 mm)|Breda Model 31]], the 20 millimeter/65-calibers Breda is a naval anti-aircraft designed for dual-purpose use. A variant of the Regio Esercito (Royal Italian Army) [[Breda Mod.35 (20 mm)|Breda Mod.35]], the Breda is the same gun mounted on an anti-aircraft platform as the Regio Marina (Royal Italian Navy). Like its army counterpart, this gun was adopted in 1935 but was initially issued on a dual mount that used the same base as the large [[37 mm/54 Breda Mod.32 (37 mm)|37 mm/54 Breda Mod.32]]. However, it means this twin mount had the same faults as the larger cannons including high vibrations and a need for a strong support structure. It also suffered from only carrying 12 rounds meaning frequent reloads and a low rate of fire. The later 1939 and 1940 single mounts fixed these problems and added better sights. The 1940 mount was particularly used by the [[MAS 500 (Family)|MAS torpedo boats]]. While seen by the Regio Marina as an effective weapon, it was overall inferior to the [[20 mm/70 Oerlikon 3S (20 mm)|20 mm/70 Oerlikon]] guns they adopted in limited numbers in 1941.

-Alongside Italy, the Breda was used in other countries as well. The Swedish Navy purchased two ''Spica''-class torpedo boats renamed the ''Romulus''-class which came with these guns designated as the Akan M/38. The Finnish Navy bought four ''Jymy''-class motor torpedo boats. A significant number of Bredas captured by the British in North Africa during Operation Compass and alongside use by the British Army was used by both the Royal Navy and Royal Australian Navy ships including ''HMAS Perth'', ''HMAS Vendetta'', and ''HMS Ladybird''.
