Francesco Caracciolo
The 1913 fleet replenishment program provided for the construction of four high-speed battleships that were supposed to match the characteristics of British ships of the Queen Elizabeth class. Lead ship Francesco Caracciolo was laid down in 1914, but the construction was halted due to a lack of materials and a change in priorities.
