The reconstruction uses the planned secondary battery and eight torpedo tubes to retain the ship's original offensive character. A twelve-inch main belt and sixteen-inch conning-tower protection anchor the armour scheme, while the deck is thickened to represent a later modernization. The turtleback citadel is treated as consistent with the historical design. Italian access to early fire-control radar is included, although the game's available parts make the completed ship an approximation.
