Attack against the Mediterranean Fleet
From an US Intelligence report on the Italian Savoia-Marchetti SM-79 torpedo bomber and its tactics, (Intelligence Bulletin, January 1943 ): "Torpedo squadrons are believed to have the highest morale of all units of the Italian Air Force. Their efficiency is such that Germany has sent squadrons to Italy for instructions in torpedo tactics. Italian aircraft torpedoes are believed to be superior to those of German design and are probably used by the German Air Force". In the picture: a S.79 dropping his torpedo against a British battleship of Mediterranean Fleet while, on the left, another S.79 disengaging after the attack. Victor Sierra.
