September 1941, battleship HMS Duke of York is berthed in the John Brown & Co. shipyard during her acceptance trials. She will enter combat service with the Royal Navy 6 months later.
Type III Hunt class destroyer HMS Blean. Commissioned 23 August 1942, sunk 11 December 1942
While escorting the British convoy MKF-4 off the Algerian coast, Blean was torpedoed by U-443 on 11 December 1942 11 miles (18 km) north-west of Oran. The U-boat aimed one torpedo against her and then one against the convoy, but both hit Blean and she sank within four minutes with the loss of 89 men

Italy:
Littorio-class battleship Vittorio Veneto on trials, 1940
bBattleship Giulio Cesare after a hit from battleship HMS Warspite during the Battle of Calabria, 9-Jul-1940. The 15 in shell (381 mm) hit the Italian ship from around 13 NM (24 km)
"Shells from Giulio Cesare began to straddle Warspite which made a small turn and increased speed, to throw off the Italian ship's aim, at 16:00. Some rounds fired by Giulio Cesare overshot Warspite and near-missed the destroyers HMS Decoy and Hereward, puncturing their superstructures with splinters. At that same time, a shell from Warspite struck Giulio Cesare at a distance of about 24,000 meters (26,000 yd). The shell pierced the rear funnel and detonated inside it, blowing out a hole nearly 6.1 meters (20 ft) across. Fragments started several fires and their smoke was drawn into the boiler rooms, forcing four boilers off-line as their operators could not breathe. This reduced the ship's speed to 18 knots (33 km/h; 21 mph). Uncertain how severe the damage was, Campioni ordered his battleships to turn away in the face of superior British numbers and they successfully disengaged"
