Special

AL Littorio — Italian special premium Tier VIII battleship.

The second Vittorio Veneto-class warship to be built, and one of the most powerful battleships in the Mediterranean. From the Azur Lane game.

AL Littorio first was released for sale on 24 July 2020 as part of the Azur Lane: Third Wave event. With the Fourth Wave event going live in update 11.4, she was available for 14,300 doubloons. She has not been available since.

Player Opinion

Performance

Warning: The data presented in the AA Defense sidebar section may be incorrect.
Refer to the in-game Port screens for more useful data.

Stats-wise, AL Littorio is a direct copy of Roma.

AL Littorio is a fast, mobile battleship with exceptional stealth. Boasting better speed and maneuverability than even Japanese counterpart Amagi, AL Littorio can quickly move around the map and take strategic positions before other battleships can get there.

AL Littorio’s stealth is one of her primary assets, capable of getting her into positions undetected; her detection range is nearly best-in-tier for a battleship (the British Monarch edges her slightly). Also in the positive column: the performance of her main battery shells. They have similar ballistics to Amagi, and captains familiar with that ship will be comfortable using AL Littorio’s guns. Her dispersion is fairly poor, however, and her excellent shell velocity is somewhat misleading; AL Littorio will actually struggle to land citadels and regular penetrations against broadside cruisers. Due to the excellent penetration characteristics of her shells, she will frequently over-penetrate lightly-armored targets instead of hammering them. The amazing penetration values of her main battery are nearly unparalleled and new captains are advised to allow for an adjustment period in learning when to fire her guns to land maximum damage against enemy targets.

AL Littorio’s anti-aircraft defenses are downright atrocious. She edges out Tirpitz and Amagi in the AA department, but only just, and her AA suite has a mere 4.0 km maximum range. Captains are well-advised to stick close to friendly ships for air protection in matches that feature aircraft carriers. Her armor scheme is fair overall, though AL Littorio has a major weakness in her raised citadel; if caught broadside, she can take massive amounts of damage. Angling is typically effective in avoiding such hits.

Her speed and stealth are AL Littorio's biggest assets. No other battleship at Tier VIII combines the speed and stealth that AL Littorio boasts. In addition to being able to sneak up to enemies and catch unsuspecting cruisers broadside, she can use her strengths to retreat into stealth in disadvantageous situations. As long as enemy planes are not present or are kept in check, AL Littorio is a solid ship with all the tools necessary to contribute to her team's success.

Pros:

• Outstanding AP penetration
• Excellent shell velocity
• Excellent main battery traverse speed
• Great armor protection, comparable to Vladivostok
• Good torpedo protection at 38%.
• Excellent concealment.
• Good agility for a battleship.

Cons:

• AP penetration is so high it can be excessive at times, leading to many over-penetrations
• Poorly performing HE shells
• Short main battery range
• At times, the accuracy and shell grouping can be shockingly poor
• Poorly armored main turrets are often disabled/destroyed
• Weak AA and secondary suites.
• The citadel sits above the waterline, much like Soviet battleships.
  

Research

As a premium ship, AL Littorio doesn't have any upgrades to research.

Optimal Configuration

Upgrades

The recommended upgrades for AL Littorio are as follows:

• Slot 1: Main Armaments Modification 1
• Slot 2: Damage Control System Modification 1 
• Slot 3: Aiming Systems Modification 1  *
• Slot 4: Steering Gears Modification 1  *
• Slot 5: Concealment System Modification 1  or Torpedo Lookout System

Slot 3 offers several options. Most captains may find Aiming Systems Modification 1 most useful for decreasing the main battery's maximum dispersion value. Captains building Roma around her secondaries may opt for Secondary Battery Modification 1 for the increased secondary range and rate of reload. Alternatively, AA Guns Modification 1 can be mounted for faster sector reinforcement deployment.

Slot 4 is most commonly filled with Steering Gears Modification 1 for the reduction in rudder shift time it provides. Captains looking to improve upon Roma's survivability may find Damage Control System Modification 2 more useful. This upgrade reduces the time required to extinguish fires or repair flooding.

Commander Skills

A basic survivability build works quite well for Roma, complimenting her armor scheme and concealment nicely. As with all other build suggestions, however, this is a recommended build, and thus subject to a degree of personalization. Captains are encouraged to pick and choose skills that fit their play style.

Consumables

AL Littorio can equip the following consumables:

• Slot 1: Damage Control Party 
• Slot 2: Repair Party 
• Slot 3: Spotting Aircraft  or Catapult Fighter 

Spotting Aircraft is recommended over Catapult Fighter, as Roma’s main gun range is very short, and captains will invariably want to extend it on occasion.

Camouflage

As a premium ship, AL Littorio comes with Default permanent camouflage and a set of permanent combat bonuses.

Signals

As a battleship, AL Littorio’s main task is to remain as durable as possible whilst providing supporting fire for the team. Therefore, signals that help increase AL Littorio’s survivability, such as India Delta () and India Yankee (), are highly recommended. And as a premium ship, signals that increase credit and experience gain per battle are also highly recommended for players that need credits and those that wish to have a dedicated captain for AL Littorio.

Ship Change Log

See here for links to Update notes.

• Available for testing by supertesters in the game starting from Update 0.9.3 as Italian battleship Impero.

Testing Changes

• Mar 10, 2020:
  • Preliminary characteristics.
• These characteristics would be abandoned the week of her release, though many CC's were not informed of it, and Littorio ended up being a carbon copy of Roma, down to the same nameplate under the AL camo. This was removed much, much later after release in yet another unlisted change.

• Added to the game in Update 0.9.6 as an Italian promotional Tier VIII premium battleship.
• Update 0.10.0:
  • The firing range of the secondary battery was increased to 6.6 km.
• Update 0.11.5:
  • The name of the AA gun 37 mm/54 Model 1939 was changed to 37 mm/54 Breda Model 1939.
