HMS Mermaid (U30)
HMS ''Mermaid'' was a Modified ''Black Swan''-class sloop of the Royal Navy. ''Mermaid'' saw service as a convoy escort during the Second World War, taking part in the sinking of two German submarines while escorting Arctic convoys to and from the Soviet Union.
''Mermaid'' was sold to Federal Republic of Germany in 1959, where she was renamed ''Scharnhorst'' and used as a training ship.
==Construction==
''Mermaid'', built by William Denny and Brothers, Dumbarton, Scotland, was laid down on 8 September 1942, launched on 11 November 1943, and completed 12 May 1944.〔Blackman 1971, p. 131.〕
As with all the modified ''Black Swan''s, ''Mermaid''s main gun armament was six QF 4 inch Mk XVI anti-aircraft guns in three dual turrets.〔Gardiner and Chesneau 1980, p. 57.〕 When completed, this was supplemented by a close-in anti-aircraft outfit of ten Oerlikon 20 mm cannon in three dual and two single mounts, although two twin 40 Bofors guns (in two twin mounts) replaced four of the 20 mm guns.〔Hague 1993, p. 83.〕 Anti-submarine armament consisted of 110 depth charges〔Gardiner and Chesneau 1980, p. 58.〕 and a Hedgehog anti-submarine spigot mortar.〔
