I can't believe you guys found something to complain about.
Firstly, the Soviet Navy IRL was helped a lot by the Italians and hence their ships borrowed a lot of design aspects. They DO look similar, but that's how they did IRL, and there isn't much you can do with a ship after all.
I think Italian ships were very beautiful IRL and they are very well made in game. I look forward to trying this nation out!
