Between the summer of 1940 and the end of 1942, Malta became one of the most bombed places on earth. Fliegerkorps X was an experienced anti-shipping unit that had fought in Norway and Denmark. 200 bombers and sixty-six fighters were pitted against the beleaguered Maltese defenders. The RAF and Royal Navy's desperate fight to retain control of the diminutive Mediterranean island, and the defiant courage of the people of Malta, is one of the epic stories of World War Two. Italian narration

They should have just done paratroop drops on malta instead of Crete. Taking Malta would have allowed Rommel to get more supplies so he could take Egypt.

I wasn't asking a dumb question, I thought this might be an old movie from the 60s -and no, I thought it could be pyrotechnics and modeling...this is color footage and I simply didn't know they had so much colored footage of wwii since that would have been very expensive back then. anyways, this is amazing footage then, thanks for uploading :)

OK - it was shot last year. They waited for a holiday weekend so not too many people were hurt when they bombed Valletta again. Why do so many people ask such dumb questions?

I agree let the bastards fuck off to this day they are not respected in Malta and the friendship of Malta and England will last forever.

If it wasn't for the British help the Luftwaffe would'v sank us, those who remeber this battle say that the Italians used to drop bombs inaccuratly from 1000s of feet high but the Germans Stukas used to dive-bombing & hitting their targets. They wanted to starve us too. Bastards!!! Thanks to the Brits & our gunners no German soldier set his foot on Malta.

I totaly agree but the German pilots were far more determined in their actions also some of the Macchi planes were very good and up to the job when you consider the poor defences in the early months that the British had on Malta.
