Project history: Improved and lengthened Lerici class, with a new thruster unit for precious positioning and the Italian-modified version of the US SQQ-14 sonar. The last two units were cancelled in August 1991 but reinstated in 1993 to keep the Intermarine Yard going until the next series of minehunters could be ordered.
Modernizations: 2010-2018, all: - MIN Mk 2 USV, SQQ-14T sonar; + Pluto-Gigas USV, provision for Plutino-Miki SSV, type 2093 sonar, Datamat 712(v)3 CCS
Naval service: No significant events.
