More sparring and jabbing between the Italian Navy and the Royal Navy. The RN still has the upper hand over the Italians, but the torpedo hit on HMS Liverpool is an Italian success. Italian land-based air power was never able to assert itself against the British Mediterranean Fleet. This is contrary to the experience of the British off Norway, and counter to the later Japanese experience in the South Pacific.
