December, 1941 Malta.

Continuing efforts by the Regia Aeronautica to interrupt RAF operations on Malta brought their supply of Picchiatelli (Stukas) to Sicily as well as their new fighter, the Macchi 202. The tiny island was a major thorn in the side of the Germans and Italians as it lay astride the resupply routes from Italy and Sicily to North Afica. Malta was the perfect location to stage interception raids on Axis ships trying to reinforce troops in Cyrenaica. The Italians kept up the pressure on Malta by attacking both the port and shipping at Grand Harbour.

The Writeup is outdated somewhat but the Port at Malta will be the target.
