Azur Lane launches research ships every year, and the research ships are essentially a collaboration with World of Warships. Vittorio Cuniberti is the Sardinian Empire destroyer to be released in the eighth phase of the research. So how is Vittorio Cuniberti in Azur Lane? When will this ship be released? Below, we'll provide more information about this ship, including character design, prototype, and more. If you're interested, come and learn more!

Vittorio Cuniberti will be implemented after the maintenance update on July 10, 2025. However, obtaining a research ship is not something that can be achieved immediately. First, you need to reach a certain value of tech points from the Sardinian faction and possibly other factions to unlock the task. Then, you need to accumulate 3 million experience points by deploying the corresponding faction's vanguard ships and complete a series of tasks, which takes about a week.

Even after unlocking and obtaining the ship, what you get is not the fully upgraded version. You still need to complete the eighth phase of the research commission to obtain blueprints. To fully upgrade, you need 343 blueprints, and for future enhancements through Celestial Fitting, you will need an additional 165 blueprints, totaling 508 blueprints.

Vittorio Cuniberti is an 8th tier destroyer in World of Warships, designed during the same period as the Soldati class, based on a larger design of the Maestrale class. It has three twin 120mm main guns and two quadruple 533mm torpedo launchers. In fact, if this ship had been released in the first or second phase of the research, it would have been quite reasonable. Now, many players are surprised that such an early design is being released in the eighth phase.

Vittorio Cuniberti is a little overachiever, with a strong thirst for knowledge and a love for learning. She feels uncomfortable if she can't solve a problem. Often asked by her friends to help with tutoring, although she occasionally complains about their IQ levels, she also enjoys the feeling of being relied upon.

That's all for the introduction about Vittorio Cuniberti in Azur Lane. Many players jokingly refer to her as "Research Purple." According to the specifications of the prototype, it would not be a problem to place her as a gold-tier ship in the early stages of the research. However, in the current context where there are many rainbow-tier ships, it is a bit surprising to see her as a research gold. Her overall strength is estimated to be around A (T1) level, but more attention is paid to whether she has any special mechanisms.
