Re: Australian Spitfires

the Info about the Zekes is interesting, looks like the Timor Squadrons were at the end of the food chain.
Comment re the Spits being there to shoot down Bombers. That was their role, the effect of a Zeke Fighter Sweeps would have been minimal. The Bombers were the main target of the defenders. Of course in a planned defence certain units would be tasked with attacking the Fighter cover and others the Bombers. The tactic worked well in the Battle of Britain.
Of course this is pure disinformation.
