Italian claims/losses May/June 1941
Hi guys
On 7 May 1941, an Italian transport aircraft (SM81?) was claimed shot down by three Beaufighters from Malta. Any ideas? On 3 June 1941, a Blenheim from Malta was possibly shot down north-west of Lampedusa by two CR42s. Any details available? On 22 June 1941, a Blenheim was damaged by a CR42, and a CR42 was claimed shot down. Any help appreciated. Thanks. Cheers Brian Last edited by Brian; 12th July 2017 at 17:17. |
