HMCS ''Haida'' is a destroyer that served in the Royal Canadian Navy (RCN) from 1943 to 1963. ''Haida'' sank more enemy surface tonnage than any other Canadian warship. She is also the only surviving Tribal-class destroyer out of 27 vessels that were constructed between 1937 and 1945 for the Royal Navy, Royal Australian Navy, and the RCN. She now serves as a museum ship on the waterfront of Hamilton, Ontario, and was designated a National Historic Site of Canada in 1984.〔(HMCS Haida ), Directory of Designations of National Historic Significance of Canada 〕 == Construction == ''Haida'' was among the first batch of Tribal-class destroyers ordered by the RCN in 1940–1941. The RCN based this order upon the successful use of the Tribals in the Royal Navy during the early years of the Second World War and the vessels were ordered with modified ventilation and heating systems for North Atlantic winter service. ''Haida''s design was modified after deficiencies were noted in the lead ship of the Canadian Tribals, . She was launched on 25 August 1942 and commissioned into RCN service on 30 August 1943. She underwent workups under her first and most famous commanding officer, H.G. DeWolf before reporting to the British Home Fleet at Scapa Flow in October 1943. 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「HMCS Haida (G63)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
