In June 1942 in the region of El Almeyn the 8th British Army, under generals' B. Montgomery command, inflicted a defeat on German forces, under Field-Marshals' Rommel command. In October 1942 the British command planned massive air strikes on Tobruq and Al-Aqualia in Libya. Inspired by the success of British ground forces at El Almeyn, Royal Air Forces pilots decided to once and for all destroy Nazi forces on the African continent. However, the bombers ran into the strongest flak and practically all were shot down, without causing any damage to the enemy. This stroke the colonial forces, which did not have satisfied supply; lead to the rise of danger threatening to destroy, already worn after the attack, British division and put under threat the success of the African campaign overall.

It is necessary to find bearings on the location and destroy the most of weapon emplacements of anti-aircraft defence in settlements Tobruq and Al-Aqualia before the beginning of Royal Air Force bombing. The destruction of fuel trucks close column in the region of military action will not allow German forces to get the freedom to maneuver.
