vincenzo gioberti (azur lane)

Azur Lane's personification of the Italian destroyer Vincenzo Gioberti. Character design by Dango Remi, voiced by Yoshioka Misaki.

Appearance

In-game, she has purple eyes and long grey hair tied in twintails (or two side up) with a sailor hat emblazoned with an anchor symbol. She wears a green capelet with epaulettes over a buttoned two-tone dress. Unlike her sister, she doesn't have her real-life hull letters (GB) on the dress.

Her rig is similar to Carabiniere in that her 533 mm triple torpedo tubes is to her left and her 120 mm twin gun mount is to her right, but her rig carries them directly attached to the hull parts that display the distinctive red-white stripe pattern found on Regia Marina ships prior to 1943.

History

In real life, Vincenzo Gioberti was the second Oriani-class destroyer built, commissioned in 1937. The class was grouped together as the 9th Destroyer Division and served in the battles of Calabria and Cape Matapan and was damaged in the latter engagement where two of her sisters were sunk by Royal Navy battleships Valiant and Warspite in a night battle.

After Matapan, she received an anti-air refit that saw her lose one of her torpedo mounts. This did not save her from being sunk by a Royal Navy submarine in August 1943, just a month before the armistice.
