Tuhia he haere tonu mo tenei irava - I muri tata mai i tana tukunga, i kino te kino o "Littorio" i te parekura rererangi o Ingarangi i Taranto
I te 11 o Noema 1940, i whakakorehia ia ki te mahi tae noa ki te Poutu-te-rangi e whai ake nei. I whai wāhi a "Littorio" ki ngā rerenga maha ki te hopu i te British Mediterranean Fleet, ko te nuinga o ēnei rerenga kāore i whai hua, ko te mea nui ko te Pakanga Tuarua o Sirte i te Maehe 1942, i whara ai ia i ētahi kaipuke whawhai o Ingarangi. I whakaingoatia a "Littorio" ki a Italia i te Hurae 1943 whai muri i te hinganga o te kawanatanga Fascist. I te 9 o Hepetema 1943, i whakaekehia te kaipuke Itari e nga kaipuke pahū a Tiamana i a ia e haere ana ki te whakarau. I roto i tenei mahi, i kite i te whakangaromanga o tona tuahine, "Italia" ia i patua e te Fritz X irirangi-whakahaere i te poma, meinga kino nui ki tona kopu. Hei waahanga o te kirimana whakamutua, i whakaraua a "Italia" ki Malta, Alexandria, me te mutunga ki te Great Bitter Lake i te Suez Canal, i noho ai ia tae noa ki te 1947. I whakawhiwhia a "Italia" ki te United States hei taonga whawhai, a i whakakorehia i La Spezia i te 1952-1954.
