Hello, As the title suggests, I've yet to figure out who had (if any) air superiority during the Greco-Italian war of 1940. I know about the RAFs assistance to the Greeks, but I've also read about their problems of weather, available and well built airports, supplies etc, so I'm not sure if any side actually enjoyed air superiority. Sources would be more than welcome.
Thanks in advance for your time and answers.
According to this book Italians had air superiority at the onset of the war. The UK sent aid but it overestimated German strength during and after the Battle of Britain, meaning that it was under-resourced in the Middle East and only sent a few squadrons to Greece. Some of these were biplanes (Gladiators), already obsolete at the time. The British and Greeks put together were no match for the Luftwaffe in 1941.
