S3#98 – Spitfires Over Malta; Malta - Summer 1942

http://www.squadselectseries.com

The Luftwaffe was determined to batter Malta so its striking force could not continue to sink the much needed supplies that Rommel needed to carry on his advance into Egypt. But with the addition of Spitfires the defense of Malta would reach its most famous chapter. In clear blue Mediterranean skies, high above the most bombed portion of the British Empire a life and death struggle would ensue.

This event will highlight the bombing of Malta and attacks on the shipping lanes of both sides. The RAF has the advantage of radar but has limits on how and when they can scramble their limited fighter strength. The Axis will be able to batter the island fortress with carry over damage. This will feature the classic Spitfire VC vs Messerschmidt 109F4 fighter matchup.

Our next event starts Apr 10th in the S3 Arena at 8:30PM Eastern/5:30 PM Pacific.

With few bomber strike pilots remaining in the S3s all squads must now decide how best to use their available aircraft types and conduct missions. We have lots of experienced and dedicated pilots left and new roles may be just the thing to get us working as a team again.

Good Luck,
Jabo
