Actually the regia marina they were building a CVL the "Aquila" but it was never ultimated.

Italian ship had no radar old spotting targeting and distance measurement instruments. Total absence of night fighting equipment or training, the fleet was ordered to NEVER engage in night battle and ALWAYS disengage if they casually meet enemy ship. Also if you have to talk about armor than you need to talk of enemy weaponry and the building technics that lies behind it, simply saying it's "number"mm thick won't explain if it was usefull or just a waste of materials.
