The ''Churruca'' class was a Spanish destroyer class built for the Spanish Navy based on a British design. Eighteen ships were built, with two being sold to Argentina. The ships were authorized on 17 February 1915 by Navy Minister Augusto Miranda y Godoy. The program planned for four light cruisers, six destroyers, 28 submarines, three gunboats, and 18 coast guard vessels; of these, five light cruisers, three and fourteen ''Churruca''-class destroyers, 16 submarines, and the three gunboats were actually completed. Some of the later ships of the class were completed without the central gun due to an arms embargo during the Spanish Civil War. == History == The three first ships (''Churruca'', ''Alcalá Galiano'', and ''Sánchez Barcáiztegui'') were launched between May 1925 and June 1926. When ''Plus Ultra'' went to Argentina, she was accompanied by and . These vessels arrived in Buenos Aires on 7 February 1926. The Argentine Navy was interested in purchasing ''Alsedo'', and the Spanish government on 25 May 1927 provided credit to buy ships in Spain. Argentina eventually purchased ''Churruca'' and ''Alcalá Galiano'', renaming them ''Cervantes'' and ''Juan de Garay''. Between 1928 and 1933, ''Churruca'' and ''Alcalá Galiano'' were launched, along with four other vessels, followed by seven more between 1935 and 1937. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Churruca-class destroyer」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
