Italian destroyer Corazziere (1909)

Corazziere was a Soldato-class destroyer of the Italian Regia Marina, named for the cuirassier. The Gio. Ansaldo & C. shipyard in Genoa laid her down on 23 October 1905, launched her on 11 December 1909 and completed her on 16 May 1910. Two sets of triple-expansion steam engines fed by three Thornycroft water-tube boilers gave an estimated 6,000 indicated horsepower and a design speed of 28.5 knots. She first carried 95 tonnes of coal and was later converted to burn fuel oil, with 65 tonnes of capacity. In the Italo-Turkish War she and Artigliere sank the Ottoman torpedo boats Alpagot and Hamidiye with gunfire while they lay at anchor, and she also served in the First World War. She was stricken from the naval register on 1 June 1928 and scrapped.
