Varese
A reimagined 1935 Italian "medium displacement" battleship concept, presented as a "large cruiser" or "cruiser killer." One sketch from those studies featured an unusual layout, with eight 320 mm guns in two quadruple turrets placed amidships, while the secondary battery mounts were relocated to the fore and aft ends of the ship.
