Development and Origin

The Br.765 Sahara was a medium transport aircraft developed by the French firm Breguet. Its design was based on the Br.763 medium transport aircraft, serving as an evolution of that model.

Key Features and Service

Unlike the Br.763, the Br.765 featured a reinforced and slightly reduced fuselage. This modification resulted in a decrease in the number of passengers carried.

The prototype of the Br.765 Sahara performed its first flight on July 6, 1958. The aircraft was subsequently delivered to the Air Force in 1964.
