Probably you are thinking of the infamous Caproni Bombar- there were several types used in World war I by the Italian air arm. Named after designer Major Gianni Caproni as stated there were several variations, most using modified Packard V-l2(Liberty) engines originally developed for trucks and putting out 400 Hp in aircraft trim. Having a modest tactical output on the war, it was a forerunner of the even more exotic Caproni Ca60 Transaero which had NINE wings and Eight Engines. while we are at it 8 Rudders, l8 flaps, two separate engine-control facilities and well, it did not work as lplanned buyt managed one parlty successful test flight in l92l ( up about l00 feet) a second test flight ended in a crash landing and collapse, end of program.

Why are the engines of a plane located under the wings?
The location of jet engines on the wings of passenger aircraft is for three main reasons:The reduced noise requires less insulation for the passenger cabin.The separation of engines could reduce damage to the fuselage or the other engines in the event of a failure.The wings are the load-bearing structures, so the application of force there has certain physical advantages (and shorter fuel lines, since most are wet wings with fuel inside). However, other designs attach the engines to the rear of the plane to reduce lateral (twisting) force.Military jets have different constraints and concerns, so engines may be located inside the fuselage where practical. Some subsonic military planes do have wing-mounted engines (S-3, A-10, B-52).
