    Default Italian weapons in the enemy reports

    Interesting collection in pdf files of original wartime Allied intelligence reports on Italian military equipment.

    US Navy "Mine disposal handbook. Italian underwater ordnance"
    http://www.talpo.it/files/mine-marine-italiane.pdf

    "(British) Ministry of Supply. Permanent records of research and development. Italian bombs and fuzes by Col. A.D. Merriman Royal Engineers"
    http://www.talpo.it/files/bombe-da-a...le-inglese.pdf
