Pilo Class Destroyer (1915)

Italy built eight "Pilo" class destroyers as the Great War progressed. These destroyers dispensed with the forward 4.7-in gun featured on recent Italian destroyer designs, leaving them with a uniform armament of 3-in weaponry and affording the opportunity to double the torpedo armament and increase fuel stores by 50%.
