TORPEDO SURVIVOR: The first time a Torpedo attack would destroy this unit, this unit remains in play with 1 hull point instead of being destroyed.
CONVOY DEFENDER: While a friendly Auxilliary is in this unit's sector or an adjacent sector, this unit rolls one extra attack die when making Main Gunnery attacks this turn.
PURSUIT SHIP: Instead of moving this unit during your Sea Movement step, if you are the first player for this turn, you may choose a local enemy Ship. If that ship is within range 2 at the end of your opponent's Sea Movement step, put this unit in that unit's sector.

She was repeatedly dispatched to head off british convoys. Torpedo Run might reflect that she did so in company of her cruiser division. Its not a perfect fit but it mitigates the weakness of her torpedo line, and that of italian torpedoes in general
So defensive SA in Torpedo Suvivor and an offensive SA in Torpedo Run,
Torpedo Run - Once per game, at the end of the Sea Movement phase, you may move this unit and a friendly Destroyer in its sector one sector. A unit moving this way can only move to a sector from which it will be able to make a Torpedo attack during the Surface Attack phase. (Oi)
