Experimental Carrier - Italian aircraft with vital armour of 7 or less may base on this carrier. Patrol bombers can't use this ability.
Improvised ASW - instead of thier normal attack, aircraft based on this unit may make a 2 dice ASW attack in the air attack step.
I believe Freccia, Picchiatelli, and Falco are the only ones with VA 7, but Freccia and Falco are land based, so only the Picchiatelli could base on this unit.

Italy financial position in the years after the first world war were such that modernisation of the navy was stifled. A 1921 appropriation for the navy called for 2 cruisers and a 9000 ton aircraft carrier of similar proprtion to the ships then entering service with the British and Japanese fleets. The two cruisers would become Trento and Trieste but for a variety of reasons the carrier was never built. The effect this ship, or the various other proposals, would have had on the battle of the Mediterrean remaims a enduring mystery.

Hey guys, since you left it to me to make up some of the specifications I would like to suggest the following to "fill it out"
Special Abilities:
ASW Mission – Instead of making a Bomb or Torpedo attack during your Air Attack step, Bombers based on this unit can make a 2-dice ASW attack.
Stuka Operations - The Ju87B Stuka and the Ju87R2 Picchiatelli can base on this unit.
G.50 Freccia Operations - The G.50 Freccia can base on this unit.
I think "Experimental Carrier" is doing this the hard way. Let's just keep consistent with past practice and the Sparviero. If you want the Freccia to base on it (I think a decent idea) then just do it the obvious way rather than trying to filter by other specifications.
Stats:
Commissioned: Not started Decommissioned: Not started Displacement: 9,000 tons standard Length (OA): 574 ft est. Beam: 69 ft est. Speed: 25 kts est. Armament: 8 x 100 mm AA (4 x 2), 4 x 40 mm AA (4 x 1), 4 x 12.7 mm MG (4 x 1) est. 21 aircraft est.
I based the armament on the AA armament of Trento and Trieste since they would have been contemporaries under construction and completion.
Also note that the RE.2001CB can use the "ASW MISSION" sa because you declare it to be a bomber when you place it during the air mission phase
