Description
WWII 1940.
The Italian Reggia Aeronautica tries to bombs the little island of Malta into submission.
On both sides the aircraft participating was outmoded and mostly obsolete. For months the Savoia Marchetti bombers attacked almost impervious to the 3 slow biplanes that was the only airborne defence of the country.
Finally, some Hawker Hurricane fighters were flown off a carrier and within hours changed the whole situation. With 8 X 0.303" machine-guns the tables were turned on the merciless enemies...well at least temporally.
