Cruiser Fiume was one of the 4 heavy cruisers of 10000 tons class &quot;Zara&quot;, every unit taking the name of Italian cities acquired after WWI (Zara, Fiume, Pola, Gorizia). The heavier armament was composed by 8 203mm guns. Unfortunatly, 3 of the 4 units were sunk during the Cape Matapan battle in march 1941.
