Audace was a destroyer of the Italian Regia Marina. Originally, the Imperial Japanese Navy ordered her as the Urakaze-class Kawakaze, but the Japanese sold her to the Kingdom of Italy in 1916 while she was under construction. The Italians briefly named her Intrepido before renaming her Audace. Commissioned in 1917, she played an active role in the Adriatic campaign of World War I. During the interwar period, she operated in the Adriatic, Aegean, Mediterranean, and Red seas and was reclassified as a torpedo boat in 1929.
