History:

Nicoloso da Recco was a Navigatori-class destroyer built for the Royal Italian Navy (Regia Marina) in 1930. Named after the Italian Renaissance seaman Nicoloso da Recco, she served during World War II in which she was the sole survivor of her destroyer class. She shot down three Beaufort bombers while escorting a two-freighter convoy on 21 June 1942 off Tunisia.[1] On 2 December 1942 Nicoloso Da Recco took part of the Battle of Skerki Bank, where an Italo-German convoy carrying troops and supplies to Libya was obliterated by Allied naval forces. Nicoloso Da Recco was the only vessel of her class to survive the war, and was eventually scrapped in July 1954.

N. Da Recco: This is the definition of a bloated unit, the reason you should be bringing it is for the initiative bonus but your forced to pay 8 points for it since the cost has been jacked up with Tenacity and desperate AA on a sub par DD once again those are good abilities to have on a good unit with a valuable SA you want to protect which isnt the case here.
