Luftwaffe attacks on D/S Svinta on 20.3.1940?
 
Hello friends,

I´m trying to obtain more data about the loss of D/S Svinta on 20.3.1940.

According to this discussions, she was damaged by aircraft (at about 19.15 on 20.3.1940), then sunk after an explosion (at 22.10 on 20.3.1940):

Where there any reports form Luftwaffe units about an attack at the time of the "explosion" at 22.10?

Where the german bombers attacking with their motors turned off?

Thank you & greetings

Darius
