Regina Elena-class battleship
The ''Regina Elena'' class was a group of four pre-dreadnought battleships built for the Italian Regia Marina between 1901 and 1908. The class comprised four ships: , the lead ship, , , and . Designed by Vittorio Cuniberti, they were armed with a main battery of two guns and twelve guns, and were capable of a top speed of . They were the fastest battleships in the world at the time of their commissioning, faster even than the British turbine-powered .
The ships saw service during the Italo-Turkish War of 1911–1912 with the Ottoman Empire. They frequently supported Italian ground forces during the campaigns in North Africa and the islands of the eastern Mediterranean Sea. They served during World War I, in which Italy participated from 1915 to 1918, but they saw no combat as a result of the cautious policies adopted by the Italian and Austro-Hungarian navies. All four ships were discarded between 1923 and 1926 and broken up for scrap.
==Design==
Starting in 1899, Vittorio Cuniberti began design work on a warship armed with a uniform battery of twelve guns, armored with thick belt armor, and capable of a top speed of , on a displacement of . This proved to be the genesis of Cuniberti's later designs, which culminated in the British all-big-gun . When the 1899 design project was not accepted, Cuniberti turned his attention to a new design requirement for a battleship faster than all British and French battleships and stronger than the armored cruisers fielded by both navies. This resulted in a modified version of his earlier design, what came to be the ''Regina Elena'' class.〔Gardiner, pp. 336, 344〕〔Hore, p. 81〕
