Dante Alighieri — Italian Tier IV battleship.
The beginning of the dreadnought race was ignored by Italy due to the high cost of ships of the new class and the commissioning of pre-dreadnought battleships. The project for the first dreadnought began only in 1908. It was the first time triple main battery turrets were used, and anti-mine guns were mounted in the turrets. Built according to this project, Dante Alighieri embarked on as many as four naval missions in World War I as the flagship of the Italian fleet.

Player Opinion
Pros:
- Can use the special Italian SAP shells.
- SAP shells are highly effective at close range where AP shells will bounce and over pen.
- Hard to hit superstructure or set it on fire due to its small size.
- Very good concealment for a battleship at tier IV.
- Large quantities of secondaries for brawling.
- Good armor protection for tier IV.
- Great gun angles, combined with good armor, allows for bouncing enemy shells.
- Fastest tier IV battleship rudder shift time.
Cons:
- Does not carry HE shells that other non-Italian battleships have.
- Below average AA defenses.
- Below average gun range at her tier although this is not much of a issue since she will be fighting at close range often.
- Second longest reload at tier IV, beaten by Gangut,which is offset by large numbers of main and secondary guns.
- Below average healthpool for a tier IV battleship.
Optimal Configuration
Upgrades
The recommended upgrades for Dante Alighieri are as follows:
- Slot 1: This slot is most commonly filled with Main Armaments Modification 1
, though Auxiliary Armaments Modification 1
is a popular pick for captains who go for a full secondary build with other upgrades and commander skills.
- Slot 2: There's really only one choice here for battleships - Damage Control System Modification 1
. This will reduce chances of fire and flood.
