The Italians had a decent Navy in WW2

Compared to Germany they actually had functional carriers and a huge fleet of cruisers and battleships. Why was it that Italy had a decent Navy and a decent airforce yet a shit ground army? Like their infantry was OK but had very dated equipment and lacked sufficient vehicles and tanks.

Italians didn't know how to innovate or even copy. They had machine guns that required oiled stripper clips for god's sake. No wonder they lost to Ethiopians before needing to use chlorine gas.

Mussolini believed his money was best spent in the navy and they had top of the line ships. Roma was actually almost on par with Iowa class battleships. But lacked high end radar. Some say the only redeeming quality they had was their navy and their few late war planes like the M.C 202 and the Folgore Jet program.

germans are evil

The Italians betrayed Germania. Roma was just a victim of circumstance. Poor gal.

finally someone who's studying instead of randomly shooting bullshit...

if the Americans had supported italy and germany there would no longer be rothshilds, rockefellers, morgans, federal reserve, european central bank and world hunger would be extinct.

Their navy was large but shit. Despite it's smaller size the Kriegsmarine was far more effective. The Italian navy was a "fair weather" navy, they didn't have radar, good communication and their ships were unstable in in storms and bad weather.

Also freemason niggers and illuminati niggers would be dead.

They had radar. Just not good radar compared to the Royal Navy.
