Francesco Caracciolo — Italian Tier VII battleship.

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.

Player Opinion


Pros:

  • Has access to Semi-Armor Piercing main battery ammunition that can deal tons of damage on cruisers or chew battleship superstructures.
  • Flat ballistics and fast shells, which make aiming and leading very comfortable on this ship.
  • Great turret angles and turret traverse, coupled with the great side armor (300mm) makes Caracciolo a great kitting, pushing and tanking ship.
  • Decent AA if you don't counts its range.
  • The best torpedo protection at tier 7.
  • Large quantities of secondaries.
  • Excellent speed of 29 kts.
  • Great concealment for a tier VII battleship; only Poltava is better by a few meters.

Cons:

  • Small health pool for a tier VII battleship.
  • Does not have access to High Explosive main battery ammunition.
  • Slow main battery reload time of 33 seconds.
  • Inconsistent dispersion of main battery salvos.
  • Despite good armor protection, showing broadside will often result in citadels.
  • While the AA is decent, it's mostly short range, meaning it won't stop strikes.
  • While she has a lot of secondaries, most of them are 90mm, meaning they won't pen DDs.

Research

Recommended module research order:

  1. Hull (B) For maneuverability (only 4% more health). Research of this module unlocks progression to Vittorio Veneto.
  2. Gun Fire Control System: Upgrade to SDT 7 mod.2 for an extra 10% range on the main battery.
Due to the small gain in health, some captains may prefer the range buff first.
