Description
The Alberto da Giussano-class, RN Bartolomeo Colleoni, 1932 is a rank III Italian light cruiser with a battle rating of 4.7 (AB/RB/SB). It was introduced in Update "Starfighters".
General info
Survivability and armour
Talk about the vehicle's armour. Note the most well-defended and most vulnerable zones, e.g. the ammo magazine. Evaluate the composition of components and assemblies responsible for movement and manoeuvrability. Evaluate the survivability of the primary and secondary armaments separately. Don't forget to mention the size of the crew, which plays an important role in fleet mechanics. Save tips on preserving survivability for the "Usage in battles" section. If necessary, use a graphical template to show the most well-protected or most vulnerable points in the armour.
Mobility
Write about the ship's mobility. Evaluate its power and manoeuvrability, rudder rerouting speed, stopping speed at full tilt, with its maximum forward and reverse speed.

Modifications and economy
Armament
Primary armament
RN Bartolomeo Colleoni has 4 turrets with 2 x 152 mm cannons each. They can load normal HE, APHEBC, or HE-TF shells. The turrets all have good horizontal traverse range, and only a small angle is required for a full broadside salvo. The fire rate is slow, but with good ballistics and explosive filler, the HE shells should still be able to quickly dispatch any unfortunate destroyers. The APHEBC shells are well suited for use against better-armoured targets, such as other cruisers. The HE-TF shell can be useful against aircraft, but are difficult to use efficiently due to their fixed timed fuse.
Secondary armament
RN Bartolomeo Colleoni has 6 x 100 mm cannons split into 3 turrets as secendary armament. They are positioned in the middle of the ship. Due to their placement, only two turrets can be fired in the same direction at the same time. Their reload speed is much better than the main cannons, as to be expected with the smaller calibre, which means they can be used efficiently as supplementary damage output while waiting for the main guns to reload. Three shell types are available: HE, APHE, and HE-TF*.
Anti-aircraft armament
An important part of the ship's armament responsible for air defence. Anti-aircraft armament is defined by the weapon chosen with the control Select anti-aircraft weapons
. Talk about the ship's anti-air cannons and machine guns, the number of guns and their positions, their effective range, and about their overall effectiveness – including against surface targets. If there are no anti-aircraft armaments, remove this section.
Additional armament
Describe the available additional armaments of the ship: depth charges, mines, torpedoes. Talk about their positions, available ammunition and launch features such as dead zones of torpedoes. If there is no additional armament, remove this section.
Usage in battles
Describe the technique of using this ship, the characteristics of her use in a team and tips on strategy. Abstain from writing an entire guide – don't try to provide a single point of view, but give the reader food for thought. Talk about the most dangerous opponents for this vehicle and provide recommendations on fighting them. If necessary, note the specifics of playing with this vehicle in various modes (AB, RB, SB).
Pros and cons
Pros:
- Balanced armour layout
- More than adequate firepower
- Enough survivability
- Sufficient manoeuvrability
Cons:
- Short ranged torpedoes
- Insufficient 100 mm cannons
- Not good enough AA to hold a plain back
History
Describe the history of the creation and combat usage of the ship in more detail than in the introduction. If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the ship and adding a block "/History" (example: https://wiki.warthunder.com/(Ship-name)/History) and add a link to it here using the main
template. Be sure to reference text and sources by using <ref></ref>
, as well as adding them at the end of the article with <references />
. This section may also include the ship's dev blog entry (if applicable) and the in-game encyclopedia description (under === In-game description ===
, also if applicable).
Media
Excellent additions to the article would be video guides, screenshots from the game, and photos.
