HMS Ajax: How a lone British Cruiser destroyed an entire Italian Squadron, 1940

The Battle of Cape Passero (1940) unfolded in the early hours of October 12, during World War II. British cruiser HMS Ajax, on a scouting mission after a Malta supply operation, encountered seven Italian torpedo boats and destroyers southeast of Sicily. Unaware, Ajax faced a fierce assault by a squadron of Italian torpedo boats and destroyers.
