Both ships served in the active duty squadron early in their careers, and participated in the Italo-Turkish War of 1911–12. They took part in the Italian offensives in North Africa and the island of Rhodes, but did not see combat with the Ottoman fleet. They were reduced to harbor defense ships by the outbreak of World War I, and they spent the war in Venice. The ships were discarded shortly after the end of the war, both having been stricken in 1920.

Since the planners had not determined what type of battleship would best suit their strategic needs, the government stepped in and mandated a design smaller than the earlier classes. Following the death of di Saint Bon, Brin took over the design process and proposed a small battleship armed with guns, a weaker main battery than those of contemporary foreign designs.〔Hore, pp. 78–79〕
