The earlier years (41/42)in the Med seem a good spot if you like to see German/Italian aircraft giving the enemy a licking. Though I was pretty pissed when after taking two hours to chase down and line up a shot at a pyro, I fired the fish and immediately saw an explosion on the Pyro....wtf!? I was thinking that my fish must have hit light speed when I noticed the bombers...my torpedo did hit but I guess it had already been destroyed as I did not get any credit
I have seen more friendly aircraft attacks during my short time in the Med then all the many patrols I had in the Atlantic. The coverage of the friendly bases covers much more of your normal patrol areas in the med than where you would normally patrol in the atlantic.
