Agostino Bertani was an Italian La Masa-class destroyer. She was commissioned into service in the Italian Regia Marina (Royal Navy) in 1919. Her crew supported supported Gabriele D'Annunzio′s actions in Fiume in 1920, and as a consequence she was renamed Enrico Cosenz in 1921. Reclassified as a torpedo boat in 1929, she took part in the Mediterranean campaign and the Adriatic campaign of World War II until the Italian armistice with the Allies in 1943, shortly after which her crew scuttled her to prevent her capture by German forces. She was involved in four collisions during her operational career.
