Verniciatura Navi Prima E Durante Prima Guerra Mondiale

[RN. Pola]

Cari amici,

devo restaurare alcuni modelli fatti da mio padre,

perchè errori a parte, bisogna controllarne la verniciatura.

Per quanto riguarda la II GM non ho problemi in merito,

ma per la I GM non sono sicuro delle notizie in mio possesso.

In particolare vado cercando come erano pitturate le seguenti navi durante il primo conflitto mondiale.

 

Incrociatore Libia

Cacciatorpediniere Fuciliere

 

certo della vostra collaborazione

 

un saluto

Italy

Italy used very dark blue grey in the early period, but went to pale grey later. In some cases ships in northern Italian waters, were painted dark grey during winter and pale grey during summer. The turret tops were painted in dark grey in all schemes. Many upper deck horizontal surfaces were painted dark grey. Black was commonly used around the funnels and areas where coal was loaded. The shade of pale grey was so pale as to appear almost white in some photographs. Decks were smartly cleaned and appear very pale as with British and German ships that had been holystoned.

 

Torpedo boats were black, but later went to pale grey or mid grey. Some destroyers adopted a camouflage scheme of blue grey and pale grey, of very similar form to that used by Italy in WW2. Recognition of individual units was achieved through a two-letter combination. AO for example being a shortening of ‘Ardito’. These letters were often in RED, but occasionally in black.
