The
Holland class destroyers were built for the Royal Netherlands Navy in the 1950s.
They were the first major ships designed and built by the Dutch after World
War 2. In contrast to previous Dutch Navy practice the ships were named after
provinces rather than Admirals. These ships were unusual as
they were the first destroyers built without large calibre anti ship
torpedoes. The machinery was ordered before the war for the Gerard
Callenburgh class destroyers and hidden during the German occupation. The
main armament was supplied by Bofors. |
