Background

About the ship

As part of the cooperation between Italy and the U.S.S.R., a project was created for a ship with nine 406 mm main guns placed in three turrets. This project was never implemented. If such a ship had been built in Italy, she would have had 406 mm main battery guns developed on the basis of 381 mm guns, and she would have been ready by 1940 or 1941.
