History

Italy entered the Cold War with what remained of the former Regia Marina after WW2, having to give away many vessels as war reparations and receiving some ships from the US as part of the MDAP program.
During the 1960s italian shipyards were put to work again to domestically produce new ships to counter the growing Soviet naval prensence in the Mediterranean theatre, where the Marina Militare would go on to play a major role alongside the French Navy and the US 6th Fleet.
After the Soviet Union gained access to ports in Albania to deploy their submarines the role of the Italian Navy shifted to being centered around ASW operations, most notably leading to the construction of the three very recognizable guided missile helicopter cruisers Andrea Doria, Caio Duilio and Vittorio Veneto.
A peculiarity in the Marina Militare’s history was the development of a nuclear program to produce a domestic adaptation of the Polaris nuclear ballistic missile to be carried primarily by surface ships.
Another icon of the Italian Navy of the time was the former Regia Marina light cruiser Giuseppe Garibaldi, which was extensively refitted in the early 1960s to not only become the first european guided missile cruiser, but also the only surface vessel in history intended to carry ballistic missiles and fulfill a nuclear deterrence role.

FAQ

🔶Why won’t the mod work?
🔷• Make sure you installed SeaLifter and AnchorChain properly.

🔶Why don’t some ships work in the encyclopedia?
🔷• Likely some autogenerated files are missing. When you spawn it they are generated but the ship won’t be visible yet. Spawn it again either by relaunching the encyclopedia or by using the Dev menu accessible via F10 > Spawn.

🔶Why am i getting white textures on some ships?
🔷• Steam Cloud is generating files related to older versions of the mod inside your Sea Power Data/StreamingAssets/user/ships/ folder, which conflict with the new version. Turn off Steam Cloud, delete the files, turn it on again and you should be good to go.

🔶Will you add modern ships?
🔷• Currently it’s a big no, i don’t want to go outside the game’s time frame too much.

🔶Will you add other countries variants of ships/planes?
🔷• Nope, too much of a hustle.
