First of all, you are comparing the armor of an heavy cruiser commissioned in 1931 with the armor of a battleship commissioned in 1940, that makes little sense to me, but whatever. Why not confront it with the armour of contemporary heavy cruisers (i.e. Takao-class, Mogami-class, Hipper-class, Town-class) ? Anyways, I advise you to go check it's armour configuration in detail.

You are making some imprecisions about the secondary armament.When they entered war it consisted in:

12 100/47 OTO cannons

8 37/54 Breda AA cannons (you forgot 4 cannons)

8 13,2 Breda AA machineguns

Later 4 more 37/54 were added to the Gorizia.
