The RN Corazziere was laid down on 7 October 1937, launched on 22 May 1938, completed and commissioned on 4 March 1939, and was placed in the 12°Squadriglia cacciatorpediniere, then later in the 2°Squadra Navale, 3°Divisione Navale and C.C.FF.NN. Before the Second World War, she mainly carried out training missions. During the war, she carried out intense activity, taking part in most operations in the Mediterranean. The RN Corazziere carried out 135 war missions, 24 of which were escort and traffic protection, covering no less than 53,000 miles (85,295 km). On 15 February, the RN Corazziere was severely damaged by an enemy air attack and was stranded in the harbour basin in Naples. Between 1 and 3 April, she was towed to Genoa for major works. On 9 September 1943, after the signing of the Armistice, she was attempted to be scuttled in Genoa but later captured by the Germans, only to be sunk completely on 4 September 1944.
The RN Corazziere was introduced in Update "Starfighters". As with the others of the Soldati class, Corazziere is an excellent destroyer for its speed, manoeuvrability, and torpedoes. However, the armament is rather weak, consisting of only five 120 mm cannons equipped only with AP and HE which have rather low damage output. The anti-aircraft armament is mediocre, but allows you to destroy enemy coastal boats and planes at medium and short range.
