  • The 381 mm/50 Ansaldo was the main battery gun of Italy's most modern battleships: Vittorio Veneto, Littorio, and Roma. These built-up guns consisted of a liner, a cylinder over the chamber and part of the rifle bore, a full length cylinder, and a 3/4 length jacket with a hydro-pneumatically operated side-swinging Welin breech block. Each battleship carried nine guns mounted in three 1595-tonne triple turrets with maximum elevation of 35° . Time between salvos was approximately 45 seconds.
