An Italian bomber Savoia-Marchetti SM.81 “Pipistrello” attacking a target during the hard campaign against the Greece, winter 1940-1941. Employed on active duty for the first time during the Italian-Ethiopian war, 1935-1936, this three engine fixed landing gear aircraft was the basic Aviacion Legionaria bomber during the Spanish Civil War. But at the time of Italy’s entry in the war (10 June 1940) the SM.81 was irreparably obsolete. Victor Sierra
