Re: Reggiane 2000 for RAF!
The operational utility of the aircraft was seen as very much secondary to the economic impact and the political demonstration to Italy that there was an alternative to going to war with Hitler.
Greenhill books has done a series of "alternative histories" of essays in which different authors look at counterfactual situations. I did one in which italy stayed neutral. In that the RAF Re 2000s were committed to the defense of Singapore. Didn't help.
