Oh.......one more thing.
Was is the list with US armor SECOND TO LAST that made you blow a fuse ?
Don't blame me.
As Sgt. Joe Friday says "Just the facts, ma'am"
If you can't live with them......don't.

Needless to say you did not look anything up.
Instead you switch subject and jump around all over the place like a chicken without a head.
If I were to rebut all your points, current experience, tells me I would be wasting my time.
Obviously you cannot objectively evaluate anything because you are a
STUPID FUCKEN MORON !
Stupid you are and stupid you shall remain.
Next time you want to have a discussion with someone, fist warn them that you are stupid.
Ok stupid, Bye.

@311nonono ...projectiles leading to spikes in pressure causing inaccuraces during firing and undersized shells that led to gas blowby! The quality engineering flaws led to both lesser muzzle velocities and ranges than predicted by the range tables and fire control. This led to a very short barrell life! And you can't asked the enemy to hold there fire while I change my barrel liner!! Try some unbiased reported history and quit making a fool of yourself!! I have more if you want it?;)

@311nonono ......there was to little roon for fuel,thus the ships range was very small! The 15" guns were a joke as well! The shells had a relatively sharp edge and had a tendecy to "scoop" rather than penetrate decks even at extreme range. The quality of the shells and the charges differed greatly. Differences in the charge will cause wide variations in muzzle velocity as will variations in shell weight. Wide variations in the final machining of shells often led to oversized.........

@311nonono .......poor quality horizontal armor and poor distribution of the armor,causing a severe reduction in protection;poorly incorporated fire-control,causing repeated breakdowns of the RPC and of the radars;poor quality shells,causing great salvo dispersion (they couldn't hit anything!) ;);extremely poor AA defense and secondary battery;the Pugliese system was poorly incorporated into the ships sides;because of the very deep side protection (both vertical armor and Pugliese)...

@311nonono "By the way the Brits after WWII concluded the same about Italian armor, from tests!" Italian armor,Italian armor!.......Is that all you've got?? Is that whythese Italian batteships spent a good amount of there short life spans in for repairs?? Overall Italian battleships were junk. The Vittorio Venetto was not on par with contemporary designs! It's shortcomings were numerous: low sihouette and very low GM,causing instability at high seas and a very "wet"ship.,............

WWII armor in order of toughness, between first and last there is about a 25% difference.
1 Italian
2 British
3 German
4 American
5 Japanese

I am not going to embarrass you any further.
Go look at site "3W dot NAVWEAPS dot COM" select "naval technology" then select
"Nathan Okun Naval Gun/Armor Resource"
To figure out the 17% you will need to look a the gun penetration tables.
But remember this time you will need to use your brain.
And if you don't know who Nathan Okun is, he is quoted by almost every writer on warships.
By the way the Brits after WWII concluded the same about Italian armor, from tests!

@lander4545 As you wish my stupid "friend".

@311nonono "The Italian’s had the best steel armor of WWII,
more than 17% tougher than US grade A armor" And what did that Italian steel due for the Pugliese torpedo defense systems?? ;)
mio marito ha passato 6 anni della sua vita su quella ammiraglia ! quando nel 79 eravamo fidanzati andai con un barchino sotto la nave per salutare mio marito e mi ricordo che per non sbattere la barca alla nave levavo la gamba fuori dalla barca e la prendevo a calci :)))

@ncanneddra Anch'io classe 6°57 imbarcato marzo 78' dopo il corso segnalatori, non feci la crociera perchè essendo del reparto CINCNAV ci trasferirono al comando sommergibili per rientrare sul Veneto a fine crociera....ciao Fra !!
