#PioneersOnBoard - Leonardo Da Vinci. On April 15, 1452, Leonardo Da Vinci was born. One of his discoveries particularly changed our #future: the first ever concept of a mechanical submarine. At the time, it was impossible to actually build, but was not impossible to imagine. Da Vinci's innovation shaped our industry history so much that we named two of our submarines after him. The first #LeonardoDaVinci was built in 1940 and served under Regia Marina. The second has been the first Italian-built submarine since the postwar period to cross the Strait of Gibraltar underwater, under air and naval conflict. #FutureOnBoard #Fincantieri
