Mission April 30, 1943 at Cape Bon
Colleagues. Your help is needed.
According to a German report, "Raumbot PA-10 (ex-MTB-314) left La Goulette at 14:00 on April 30, 1943 to assist the Italian destroyer Pancaldo, which had been damaged by American aircraft near Cape Bon. Sailing independently 100 m from the coast of the Gulf of Tunis at 25 knots, it was attacked by 30-35 Spitfires at 15:56 and sunk by a direct bomb hit." I would like to find out which Allied fighter group sank such a difficult target. The problem is that 1) Spitfires were often confused with P-40s during identification and 2) Spitfires were flown by two American fighter groups. |
