-After World War II, Italy's navy had been cut in half, and heavily restricted in terms of armaments. Only from the 1950s onward was it allowed to begin reconstruction, due to Italy's entry into NATO. Over the years, several ships were built, but at the same time tensions between NATO and the Warsaw Pact increased and so in the 1970s Italy asked the United States for destroyers to replace the old Benson-class destroyers. Three [[Fletcher (Family)|Fletcher-class]] ships were delivered, later renamed Fante (D 561), Geniere (D 555), and Lanciere (D 560). The Geniere (D 555) in Italian service participated in training missions, coastal control, and other minor missiosn, but never saw combat. After 5 years, the ship was replaced by more modern units and was eventually scrapped in 1975.

 Introduced in [[Update "Danger Zone"]], '''{{Specs|1=name}}''' is a fairly good premium ship thanks to its armament composed of four single 127 mm guns with good reload thanks to the autoloader. Thanks to the powerful SAP shells, you will be able to ammo rack enemy ships very easily, and their HE-VT shells are perfect to shoot down other targets, including aircraft. In conjunction with the three twin 76 mm emplacements, also able to be equipped with HE-VT shells, Geniere can quickly cause damage enemy aircraft and boats alike. The 6 anti-submarine torpedoes cause little damage to large ships, but they may disable important modules, allowing you to take the opportunity to finish them off with the main guns. The manoeuvrability and speed are quite good. This ship is perfect for those who want to have a different play style from the Italian WWII destroyers.

 ''Prichett'' departed Guam on May 3 alongside the escort carrier USS ''Shipley Bay'' (CVE-85) and returned to Okinawa on May 7. She then resumed the radar picket duty and managed to avoid further damage for three months until late July.
-Between midnight of July 28 and dawn of July 29, while on picket duty, two Yokosuka K5Y trainer aircraft modified for ''Kamikaze'' attack managed to slip past the radar. The first plane flew past the proximity shell fired from the USS ''Callaghan'' (DD-792) as the wood-and-fabric structure rendered the fuze ineffective, then struck ''Callaghan'' on the starboard sides at 0:40 of July 29, causing engine fires. Being close to ''Callaghan'', ''Prichett'' ran up to aid the crew of the former in firefighting and rescuing survivors in the water. In the fire-lit darkness, the ship proved an easy target and a second K5Y closed in for a ''Kamikaze'' attack. Despite retaliation, the plane bore in and crashed on the starboard side of the superstructure, killing two sailors. Despite the damage, ''Prichett'' remained in the area for two hours picking up survivors from ''Callaghan'' when the latter sank at 2:35. For this action, ''Prichett'' was later awarded a Navy Unit Commendation by the US Navy.

 After Okinawa, ''Prichett'' sailed home on August 13 and arrived at the end of the war. She then underwent pre-inactivation overhaul at Puget Sound and was decommissioned and berthed for the Pacific Reserve Fleet, San Diego Group.

-The '''{{Specs|name}}''' is a premium rank {{Specs|rank}} Italian destroyer {{Battle-rating}}. It was introduced in [[Update "Danger Zone"]].
+After World War II Italy's navy had been cut in half but not only was it also restricted in many cases in matters of armaments but only from the 1950s onward was it allowed the complete reconstruction of the navy because it entered into NATO, during the years several ships were built but at the same time tensions between NATO and the Warsaw Pact increased and so it asked the United States for destroyers that would be delivered in the 1970s to replace the old Benson-class destroyers, three [[Fletcher (Family)|Fletcher-class]] ships were delivered, later renamed Fante (D 561), Geniere (D 555) and Lanciere (D 560), the Geniere (D 555) in Italian service did not do much participated in training missions, coastal control and more, but never saw combat after 5 years the ship will be replaced with other more modern units and will eventually be scrapped.
-One of the hundreds of [[USS Fletcher|Fletcher]]-class destroyers built by the United States, the USS Prichett (DD-561) saw extensive action during World War II, the Korean War, and the Vietnam War before being sold to the Italian Navy, who later renamed her as ''Geniere''.
+Introduced with the [[Update "Danger Zone"|"Danger Zone" update]], it is a fairly good Rank II premium ship thanks to its armament composed of four single 127mm guns with autoloader so with a good reload and thanks to SAP shots you will be able to make ammo rack to enemy ships very easily, besides that they are equipped with HE-VT so perfect to shoot down even aircraft, then three twin 76mm emplacements very useful to shoot down aircraft with HE-VTs and cause damage quickly to the enemy, the manoeuvrability and speed are quite good, and finally we can talk about the 6 anti-submarine torpedo launchers that cause little damage to large ships but I can disable them for a while so I can run away or destroy easily with the main guns, this ship is perfect for those who want to have a different style of play from the Italian WWII destroyers.
