Topic: Vittorio Veneto


  
  Italian battleship Vittorio Veneto - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Vittorio Veneto' keel was laid down in 1934 at Cantieri Riuniti dell'Adriatico, Trieste; she was launched on 25 July 1937, and her construction was completed in 1940, after Italy entered in war against France and United Kingdom.
Vittorio Veneto took part in the battle of Cape Teulada (27 November 1940), where her firepower (19 shells in 7 salvos from long range) caused the 7 cruiser British squad to disengage and withdraw.
After the armistice of 8 September 1943, Vittorio Veneto reached Egypt, and was blocked in Great Bitter Lake, in the Suez Canal; there was a proposal to allow the battleship to fight side-by-side with the Allies in southern France and in the Pacific Ocean, but the proposal was dismissed because of political and operational considerations.
