Re: Cant Z.506s on Lake Bracciano, July 19th 1943
Nothing in MAW 4 Simon
No listed claim(s) by 14Sq and no seaplane losses by the Italians.
252 Sq complicates things a bit since their Beaufighters claimed two Z.506 and one Z.501 destroyed
(+ three damaged) at Prevesa seaplane base, but again no losses recorded.
Strafing is tricky business and we can see again and again during the war a very clear overestimation
of such attacks.
