Dec 28, 1940, brits news: "Our fighters have continued to maintain their ascendancy over the Italian Air Force. On the 26th Gladiators of the Royal Australian Air Force shot down without loss two, and probably six, of a number of C.R. 42 fighters which were escorting a bomber formation, and on the 28th Hurricanes shot down three bombers and a fighter, again without loss".

RAAF Gladiators return to their base in the Desert. They were more than able to hold their own against the Italian biplanes. -
