Serving up until 1920, the Ammiraglio di Saint Bon was the pride of the Italian fleet for over two decades. The system took part in several major conflicts including the war with Turkey, the Balkan War and World War 1. The system was heavily armored (though not at the expense for overall speed) and was a force to be reckoned with thanks to her impressive armament.

The Ammiraglio di Saint Bon featured 4 x 10" main guns (one pair fore and one pair aft) backed up by an additional 8 x 6" guns. Crew complement amounted to 450 personnel and top speed from the twin triple expansion engines was an impressive 18 knots. Displacement was just a smidgeon under 10,000 tons.
