Patrols and events

	Commander	Date	Time	Port	Arr. date	Arr. time	Arr. port	Miles	Description
1	Cantù, Giovanni	6 Jun 1940	0427	Taranto	16 Jun 1940	1546	Gallipoli (near Taranto)	1295	Patrolled in Kythera Channel, north of Crete.
		13 Jun 1940	2027	(0) Off Suda (Crete)	A large enemy submarine was sighted at a distance of 1,000 metres and two torpedoes (533mm) were fired, but missed. The enemy submarine also appeared to have launched torpedoes. This was possibly HMS Phoenix, which was in 35°42' N, 24°11' E, but she did not fire torpedoes and did not observe the attack.
	Cantù, Giovanni	26 Jun 1940	1505	Gallipoli (near Taranto)	26 Jun 1940	1730	Taranto	7	Passage Gallipoli-Taranto.
	Cantù, Giovanni	4 Jul 1940	1620	Taranto	5 Jul 1940	1652	Augusta	282	Passage Taranto-Augusta with submarine Luigi Settembrini.
2	Cantù, Giovanni	8 Jul 1940	2321	Augusta	13 Jul 1940	0007	Augusta	389	Patrolled in 36°10'N, 17°20'E. Damaged by a bomb from a Sunderland.
		12 Jul 1940	1129 1125 (e)	36° 10'N, 17° 20'E (e) 36° 48'N, 15° 54'E (0) Approximately.	The submarine was attacked by a Sunderland flying at an altitude of 250 meters. This was Sunderland 'W' (N.9020) of 228 Squadron, piloted by Squadron Leader G. L. Menzies] flying at 2,000 feet, which dropped three 250 lb A/S bombs and strafed the submarine. Ruggiero Settimo replied with the starboard machine-gun, but it jammed after a few rounds. The submarine turned to starboard as an evasive action, allowing the port side MG to bear, but it was hit by a bomb on the stern just abaft the engine compartment, causing only minor damage. Luckily, despite being strafed by the Sunderland, there were no casualties. Settimo dived, two more bombs were dropped on the submerging submarine and another on a third run. These bombs caused more serious damage forcing the submarine to abort her patrol.
	Cantù, Giovanni	20 Jul 1940	1600	Augusta	21 Jul 1940	1750	Taranto	298	Passage Augusta-Taranto.
	Cantù, Giovanni	23 Aug 1940	0804	Taranto	23 Aug 1940	1640	Taranto	26	Exercises.

		17 Sep 1940	1948	(0) SE of Crete.	The submarine sighted two destroyers at 1945 hours and was seen by them. She dived and was depth charged, but after stopping her engines, they appear to lose contact and no damage incurred.

		10 Jan 1941	2222	35° 22'N, 16° 15'E	The submarine sighted two cruisers of the LIVERPOOL class and fired a salvo of three torpedoes (533mm) from her bow tubes, at a distance of 1,500 metres, to the leading ship. It was a surface attack and the submarine immediately dived after firing. One explosion was heard after 70 seconds and some crew members claimed it was followed very quickly by a second one. Italian sources later claimed that the cruisers were HMS Gloucester and HMS Southampton (who was sunk by bombers the next afternoon) of the EXCESS convoy, but their position were farther west and no torpedo hit was reported at that time. The targets were perhaps large destroyers as the "cruiser" turned and attacked the submarine with two patterns of depth charges.
