The Navigatori-class destroyer leaders were ordered in 1926 as a response to the French Jaguar and Guépard classes. A distinctive feature of this class was the echelon position of the propulsion unit, which was supposed to increase survivability. During World War II, the ship participated in minelaying and conducted patrol and escort missions to Africa. On April 16, 1941, Luca Tarigo sank HMS Mohawk during a fierce battle, but she was then sunk by artillery fire from British ships.
