1937 Italian Submarine Hunter

Hardrada55 · 12 July 2015

Anyone have any more information about dimensions and speed of this 1937 Italian sub hunter of 1300 tons with anti-submarine float plane? Love to know more about the floatplane. 3x1 120mm; 4x1 20mm; 2x2 torpedo tubes; 4 depth charge throwers, and sonar.

Though no complete conformity, I would think, it's an IMAM RO.43, standard shipborne
recce aircraft of the Italian Navy .
