Product information for Wargames Delivered - Warlord Games Victory at Sea - Regia Marina Fleet Miniatures
At the time of Italy’s entry into World War Two she possessed a modern and – on paper at least – highly effective fleet. Four battleships and eight heavy cruisers were available with three more battleships being fitted out. However there were no aircraft carriers (initially) not least because the Regia Marina was intended to operate near to friendly air bases in Italy and Africa. As might be expected from a force operating among the islands of the Mediterranean light forces were quite numerous including 14 light cruisers 128 destroyers and 62 motor torpedo boats which was a weapon favoured by the Italians and well suited to local conditions. No less than 115 submarines were available. The main Italian naval base was at Taranto home of the battleship force.
