About the few operational missions of Cant Z.506 as a Bomber, I am well aware of those, because during one of these missions against Bizerte died a cousin of my father in law, he was a gunner onboard a Cant Z.506B that fell in the sea shortly after it had left Sicily.

Oh well, better a non-torp Cantz 506b, than no Cantz 506b.

Too bad we didn't get the He-115
