She was the second ship of the Littorio-class and was named after Italian’s victory at the 1918 Battle of Vittorio Veneto during World War I. Commissioned in 1940, she joined the fleet shortly before Italian entered World War II. Armed with nine 381 mm (15-inch) guns and capable of speeds over 30 knots, Italian Vittorio Veneto was a fast and heavily armed battleship. She took part in several naval engagements in the Mediterranean, including the Battle of Cape Spartivento and the Battle of Cape Matapan, where she was damaged by British torpedo bombers. Despite limited success, she served as a fleet flagship and a major deterrent throughout the war. After Italian’s 1943 armistice, Italian Vittorio Veneto was interned by the Allies. She was later decommissioned and scrapped in the early 1950s, marking the end of Italian’s era of battleships.
