-The Regia Marina attempted to replace the MAS units in 1934, on the initiative of Admiral Domenico Cavagnari (Sottosegretario and Capo di Stato Maggiore between 1933 and 1940), he picked the new ship that would replace the MAS, a motor torpedo boat with metallic hull and Stefano Turr hull of 61.6 tons, but being that MASs were becoming smaller and faster, in fact the MAS 500 will be chosen for their ability to be fast and have adequate armament to fight almost any enemy naval target, while the Stefano Turr will have to wait for new engines that were developed 20 years later, the Stefano Turr motor torpedo boat will be decommissioned and scrapped soon after World War II.
+In 1934, the Regia Marina made an effort to replace the MAS units under the initiative of Admiral Domenico Cavagnari, who was serving as Sottosegretario and Capo di Stato Maggiore (Chief of Staff) of the Regia Marina from 1933 to 1940. The chosen replacement for the MAS was a motor torpedo boat called the Stefano Turr, which had a metallic hull and weighed 61.6 tons. However, as the MAS boats were becoming smaller and faster, the MAS 500 was ultimately selected due to its speed and suitable armament for engaging various enemy naval targets. On the other hand, the Stefano Turr had to wait for new engines, which were not developed until 20 years later. Consequently, the Stefano Turr motor torpedo boat was decommissioned and scrapped soon after World War II.
-The Stefano Turr introduced with the [[Update "Starfighters"|"Starfighters" update]], is a fairly fast torpedo boat for its size and with an armament composed of only three 12.7mm and one 6.5mm, while as additional armament it carries 4 torpedoes and 16 depth charges so for what you will encounter you will be able to easily destroy enemy targets, thanks to its speed and manoeuvrability you can outflank enemy boats or ambush larger ships using your torpedoes and depth charges, instead survival is decent.
+Introduced in [[Update "Starfighters"]], the Stefano Turr is fairly fast for its size. It is equipped with three 12.7mm machine guns and one 6.5 mm gun, along with additional armament comprising four torpedoes and 16 depth charges, allowing it to effectively destroy enemy targets. Utilizing its speed and manoeuvrability, the Stefano Turr can outmanoeuvre enemy vessels, flank them, and execute ambushes on larger ships using torpedoes and depth charges. Its survivability is also decent.

-The Stefano Turr can equip 4 x 450 mm S.I.170 torpedoes. Taking them is not advised most of the time as, if shot, they can detonate and critically damage the vessel, if not sinking it outright. The torpedoes themselves are average, with reasonable speed and enough explosive force to destroy most enemies. If you decide to take them, concentrate your torpedo fire on large and/or slow ships - prime examples are the [[110 ft SC-497]], [[165 ft PC-451]], [[Type K-3 / No.1 Class|Type K-3]], [[Type K-7 / No.4 Class|Type K-7]], [[Type 5]] escort boat, and Russian armoured river boats. Smaller boats, if prepared, will easily dodge them.

Smaller boats, if prepared, will easily dodge them.
 The Stefano Turr can also equip 12 B TG depth charges. They are next to useless, as they are made for destroying submarines, which are not in the game. Most ships, especially small boats, will easily escape the blast. The depth charge racks are considered an ammo rack and will explode and destroy the ship, once destroyed. Overall, taking depth charges are not recommended under any circumstances.

-Indeed, the ship was larger than the MAS and it caused propulsion problems. The planned four 750 HP FIAT V 1616 fast diesel engine were insufficient to power the vessel in 1936 and it compromised the success of the project. A subsequent FIAT project, proposed in 1938, in view of the realization of a new type of 1500 HP fast diesel engine, was rejected by the Ministry. A modified Turr based on 4 Isotta Fraschini Asso 1000 engines adapted to run on low pressure naphta was studied in 1938. It aimed at displacing 50 tons and sailing at 40 knots, but the engines in question were developed only twenty years later.
