H Class (1939) DD |
|
The six
ships of the H Class (1940) were destroyers.
Originally under construction for Brazil to the same design as H Class (1936) but with only 3 x 4.7in guns. The Y turret was deleted to make way for additional depth charge stowage. They were bought from Brazil 04-Sep-1939. On completion they formed the 9th Destroyer flotilla. After WW2 Brazil did not wish to buy the survivors and they were scrapped.
