Leone
The Leone class was based on the improved design of the Mirabello class. In particular, the new ships featured 120 mm guns positioned along the centerline. During World War II, the lead ship participated in the interception of British convoys crossing the Suez Canal. After the seizure of Somalia by Great Britain, the remnants of the Italian fleet in Africa attacked the Suez Canal and Port Said, trying to break through to the Mediterranean. In preparation for the attack, Leone ran aground and caught fire. The crew abandoned the destroyer, and she was finished off by her sister ship Pantera.
