An item reported that two large submarines under building at Fiat, San Giorgio for account of the Italian navy were sold to Peru. It seemed that 4 large submarines were ordered to be built at Spezia and probably to be fitted out with the propulsion of former U-boats acquired as war repairs. The whole matter was kept very secret by the Italian government.
