It was a triumph for the Italian fleet, and since 1939 this date is celebrated as Italian Navy Day.

This destroyer is very maneuverable and quite fast: it doesn’t lose much speed while turning and boasts great acceleration, allowing it to effectively dodge enemy salvos and torpedoes. In addition, Its main calibre’s armor-piercing shells are a great asset in destroying enemy ammo racks and engines!
