Cristoforo Colombo — Italian Tier X battleship.
A hypothetical project that is a variant of the development of Italian ships based on the Vittorio Veneto class and a battleship project for the U.S.S.R. with a displacement of 42,000 tons. The increase in firepower could have been achieved by increasing the number of guns and turrets: quadruple-gun turrets with 381 mm guns were in development in the late 1910s and early 1920s.

Player Opinion
Pros:
- Largest number of main guns of all Tier 10 battleships, with sixteen (16) rifles
- Currently the heaviest AP broadside in the game, beating even Vermont
- SAP shells can be extremely effective against angled and/or lightly armored targets
- Good main battery firing arcs
- Both aft turrets can turn 360 degrees
- Both SAP and AP shells have very good shell velocity and low air drag
- Good external protection - icebreaker bow and thick midsection plating
- Fairly powerful AA defenses
- Access to the Exhaust Smoke Generator consumable
- Fairly good ship speed of 29.6 knots
Cons:
- Third smallest hitpoint pool among Tier 10 battleships
- Main guns have no access to HE shells, like all other techtree Italian battleships
- Second worst reload speed in its tier/class, only Vermont's is longer
- Very poor accuracy, comparable to Tier 7 French battleship Lyon
- Small gun caliber, AP shells cannot overmatch 27mm armor
- Shortest main battery range of all Tier 10 battleships
- Enormous target with poor concealment
- AA defenses are short-ranged, making them rather ineffective at preventing plane strikes
- Most secondary mounts are 90mm and lack penetration (even with IFHE)
- Very large turn radius and fairly slow rudder shift
