The Atlion E-1 was a heavy bomber built in the 1920s For recon and medium range bombing. Due to the bombers large size it had to be equipped with 3 turrets which were decently effective at shooting down aircraft but due to the small caliber any thick armour would block the bullets. It had a bomb load of 2000lbs of explosives which is 8x125lb bombs and 4x250lb bombs. It was later put out of service in 1924 as it was more of a proof of concept due to it being highly experimental.
BTW I loosely based this of a Amiot 143M model I bought at Car boot.
