Des Geneys was one of four Pisani-class submarines built for the Regia Marina (Royal Italian Navy) during the late 1920s. Due to her age, her usefulness was limited, and she saw no real service during World War II. The submarine was decommissioned in 1942 and converted into a battery-charging hulk.
