Re: Question to Jürgen Harder P-47/P-51 and submarine claim
The British submarines P36 and Pandora were sunk in harbour on the 1st April 1942, but this was following attacks by Ju87's (III/StG 3). The Greek submarine Glavkos was sunk on the 4th April (not on the 5th as listed in the Spitfire years) but this appears to have been after an attack by Ju88's. The marauding Bf109's may have strafed submarines, but none appear to have been sunk by them during this difficult period for the defenders of Malta.
