250,000

Nazario Sauro — Italy Tech Tree Tier III Destroyer.

Destroyers of the Sauro class differed from the previous Sella class by having an improved layout for their boiler rooms, an enlarged bridge and conning tower, and two 120 mm twin-gun mounts. In 1936 and 1937, Nazario Sauro served in the Spanish Civil War. After Italy entered World War II, she participated in the interception of British convoys crossing the Suez Canal. On April 3, 1941, a British aerial bomb hit Sauro near the Saudi Arabian coast, and the destroyer sank.
