Project history: Anti-submarine boats in hulls of MTBs of MS I type. 3-shaft scheme was stored, side shafts were driven by 750hp Fiat motors, 300hp Carraro cruising engine was installed on a centre shaft. TTs were intended for attack of surfaced submarines. First 14 boats had wooden hulls, remaining had composite hulls.
Modernizations: before 1943: many boats had 2 x 1 - 6.5/115 instead of 1 x 1 - 20/65.
1946, all survived: - 30 DC; + mechanical minesweeping gear
Naval service: No significant events.
