Historical Information
Aquila was the Regia Marina’s most advanced World War II aircraft-carrier project. The passenger liner Roma was selected for conversion, and work progressed substantially before the Italian armistice in September 1943. Although the ship approached completion and incorporated a full flight deck, hangar, catapults, and a planned naval air group, Aquila never entered operational service.
 
Key Historical Details:
Commissioned: Never commissioned
Class: Aquila conversion
Number in Class: 1 Aquila conversion; Sparviero was a separate Italian carrier-conversion project
Primary Theater: Planned for Mediterranean operations
Major Operation: No combat service; conversion undertaken during World War II but never completed
Aircraft Complement: Planned complement of 51 Reggiane Re.2001 fighters in the completed design
Final Disposition: Incomplete at the 1943 Italian armistice, later damaged during the war, and scrapped after World War II
Unique Detail: Converted from the passenger liner Roma and brought close to completion, but Italy never operated Aquila as a commissioned aircraft carrier.
