	Operation "Gaudo" and the Night of Matapan
		Iachino found out even later, but just before receiving the disconcerting news he was given another, extremely important, report: a new set of radio intercept bearings put the enemy flagship a little over seventy miles Southeast of the Vittorio Veneto[2].
		Iachino duly informed Headquarters of the hit taken by the Pola and of his decision to detach the First Squadron to rescue her.
		Later, Iachino said that the near simultaneous arrival of that message and of the news of the hit on the Pola prevented him from devoting the necessary attention to the report.

	WW2DB: Battle of Matapan
		Italian battleship Vittorio Veneto, eight cruisers, and 13 destroyers under the command of Admiral Angelo Iachino set to sea to hunt for a detected British convoy.
		Iachino's biggest failure entering this battle was caused by failings of Axis Intelligence.
		When he launched the sortie, he had the wrongful impression that the British fleet only had one battleship and no carriers at its disposal, so when the battleships opened fire at the distance of less than 4,000 yards, he was caught in a surprise.

		Basandosi sulle informazioni in suo possesso, Iachino ipotizzò che l'uscita della squadra inglese avesse lo scopo di distruggere i mercantili italiani.
		Per prevenire il probabile attacco britannico l'Ammiraglio mise in allerta l'intera formazione: i cacciatorpediniere di scorta si disposero in assetto di combattimento, il gruppo di Bergamini accostò per 220° e dalle navi vennero lanciati alcuni idrovolanti perché individuassero il gruppo inglese e chiarissero così le reali forze ed intenzioni del nemico.
		Probabilmente, se Iachino avesse saputo per tempo delle errate segnalazioni aeree, e quindi dell'assenza di una corazzata nel gruppo inglese, avrebbe potuto intercettare il convoglio nemico con sufficienti ore di luce e causargli serie difficoltà.
