HMS Quality (G62)
HMS ''Quality'' (G62/D18) was a Q-class destroyer built for the Royal Navy. Entering service in 1942, the destroyer served in several theatres of World War II. Following the war's conclusion, the ship was transferred to the Royal Australian Navy (RAN), commissioning as HMAS ''Quality'' (G62/D262) in late 1945. Unlike her sister ships, which were refitted as anti-submarine frigates, ''Quality'' was not modified, decommissioned after only 59 days of service, and was sold for scrap in 1958.
