bows raised. This increased displacement and significantly reduced speed. During World War II, several programmes were started to upgrade weaponry, in particular anti-aircraft weapons, but none were applied uniformly to all ships in the class. These included full triple 533 mm torpedo mountings, 40 mm guns replaced by greater numbers of 20 mm guns, and replacement of the after torpedo tubes with 37 mm guns. Several ships were adapted for radar but only two received the equipment;

At the same time, Italian destroyers were deeply involved in escort missions of supply convoys and 1660: 1572: 1441: 1402: 1618: 1633: 1648: 1512: 1497: 1527: 1603: 1557: 862:, which required space for staff facilities. The class's machinery introduced a unit design, whereby the boilers and engine for one shaft were housed separately from those for the other shaft. Power output was substantially increased in order to deliver the desired speed. A new style of bridge layout and structure was also introduced. 644:. The single 120 mm gun mounting was changed to a twin in 1929 and an additional twin mount was installed sometime before 1942. The 40 mm weapons were an old pattern and they were replaced by two 20 mm. Two more 20 mm and two depth charge throwers were added. In use, the class proved to be unreliable. 1128:
In 1940–1941, the second fire-control directors were removed from those ships that had them. Five ships had an additional single 120 mm gun (Ansaldo 1940 pattern) installed to replace their star-shell gun. The anti-aircraft machine-guns were replaced by 20 mm cannon and further strengthened

As originally built, the Navigatori ships were insufficiently stable and too wet.

and Soldati classes were primarily employed as fleet escorts, but not exclusively so, taking part in most battles and operations that involved the Italian battle fleet between 1940 and 1942. Other tasks included mine-laying, convoy escort, anti-submarine, supply transport and anti-shipping.

The maximum speeds of Italian warships of this period should be viewed with caution, since Italian practice was to run the trials with ships as light as possible, often without armament. This enabled impressive speeds which were unobtainable under operational conditions.

Seven modified Soldati-class ships were ordered in 1940 and laid down from late 1940 to 1941. These ships were equipped with five 120 mm guns (2 twin and one single replacing the star-shell gun of the earlier ships) and additional light AA guns.

Most of the thirteen destroyers that survived the war were ceded to 809:, and used to lay minefields and run supplies from Italy. This was an exposed location and six were sunk before the end of September 1940, most in harbour by naval aircraft. Two survived until the Italian surrender, one ( 385:).
