Gli Ansaldo S.V.A. erano una famiglia di biplani da ricognizione e bombardamento italiani sviluppati nella seconda fase della prima guerra mondiale. Protagonisti di diverse imprese, come il Volo su Vienna con Gabriele D'Annunzio nel 1918 od il Raid Roma-Tōkyō di Arturo Ferrarin nel 1920, trovarono un discreto successo nell'esportazione venendo utilizzati da 11 paesi, tra cui Francia e Stati Uniti, e furono costruiti in circa 2.000 esemplari.
The Ansaldo SVA (named for Savoia-Verduzio-Ansaldo) was a family of Italian reconnaissance biplane aircraft of World War I and the decade after. Originally conceived as a fighter, the SVA was found inadequate for that role. Nevertheless, its impressive speed, range and operational ceiling, with its top speed making it one of the fastest (if not the fastest) of all Allied combat aircraft in World War I, gave it the right properties to be an excellent reconnaissance aircraft and even light bomber. Production of the aircraft continued well after the war, with the final examples delivered in 1928. Two minor variants were produced, one with reconnaissance cameras, the other without cameras but extra fuel tanks.
The SVA was a conventionally-laid out unequal-span biplane, featuring Warren Truss-style struts, and therefore having no transverse (spanwise) bracing wires. The plywood-skinned fuselage had the typical Ansaldo triangular rear cross-section behind the cockpit, transitioning to a rectangular cross section going forwards through the rear cockpit area, with a full rectangular cross section forward of the cockpit.
