The official AHF Italy under Fascism quiz thread
This one seems to have been a tough one. The answer was General Urbani.
Let's try another along the same theme.
Following the successful talks between Urbani and Goering the Luftwaffe delivered a mix of Bertha' 2s and Bertha' 2/Trops to Comsio in Sicily. How many Ju87's were delivered and on what date?

Hint #1: since I wrote "a specific ship" (not "class" or "type"), this means that the equipment shown (a type of triple torpedo launcher, of course) was embarked only on a single-ship class in Regia Marina service. This should fairly restrict the search.Davide Pastore wrote:The detail in the picture below belongs to a specific Regia Marina ship

Let's resume:
- this ship was the only ship in Regia Marina service with triple tubes arranged in "V" shape
- this ship was the only ship in Regia Marina service with triple 450mm tubes
- this ship was the only ship in Regia Marina service of her class
- this ship entered service in 1943
Should we add a picture?
