During the 1930s, the Italian company Ansaldo presented the Soviet Union with a collection of drawings, which included a blueprint for a battlecruiser with a displacement of 22,000 tons. The ship was to carry an armament of nine 10-inch guns and feature a four-shaft layout with 60,000 hp per shaft, which would allow the ship to reach a speed of 37 knots. After the outbreak of World War II, the unfinished ship would be requisitioned by the Italian government, with the battlecruiser receiving Italian armament.
