Translation: An air horn never view, has pointed to the industrial port of Taranto and has
raised significant materials from the ground ... then continued its stroke devastating what
was on her way. In fact it can be seen a flash caused by damage to electrical equipment.

Taranto naval base in the 1930s - Date 11–12 November 1940
Location Taranto, Italy - Result Decisive British victory

The Battle of Taranto took place on the night of 11–12 November 1940 during the Second World War. The Royal Navy launched the first all-aircraft ship-to-ship naval attack in history, flying a small number of obsolescent biplane torpedo bombers from an aircraft carrier in the Mediterranean Sea. The attack struck the battle fleet of the Regia Marina at anchor in the harbour of Taranto utilizing aerial torpedoes despite the shallow depth of the water in the harbour. The devastation wrought by the British carrier-launched aircraft on the large Italian warships was the beginning of the rise of the power of naval aviation, over the big guns of battleships. According to Admiral Cunnigham "Taranto, and the night of November 11–12, 1940, should be remembered for ever as having shown once and for all that in the Fleet Air Arm the Navy has its most devastating weapon." - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Taranto
