Infanta Maria Teresa-class armored cruiser

The ''Infanta Maria Teresa'' class of three armored cruisers were built for the Spanish Navy between 1889 and 1893. All three were sunk in action against the United States Navy during the Battle of Santiago de Cuba in 1898.
==Description==

The naval shipyard at Bilbao, Spain, built all three units of the ''Infanta Maria Teresa'' class. Originally, the Spanish Navy had planned to build sister ships of the battleship ''Pelayo'', but a crisis with the German Empire in the Caroline Islands in 1890 caused Spain to divert money budgeted for the battleships to the ''Infanta Maria Teresa'' class instead.〔http://www.spanamwar.com/pelayo.htm The Spanish-American War Centennial Web Site: ''Pelayo''〕 The armored cruisers were considered more desirable than additional battleships at the time because their greater speed and steaming range made them better suited for responses to colonial crises.〔
The two-funnelled ''Infanta Maria Teresa'' class was fast and well-armed, with 11-inch (Hontoria 280-mm) guns mounted in barbettes on the center line fore and aft and a large secondary battery of 5.5-inch (140-mm) guns. But their protection was poor: The armor belt was narrow and stretched for only two-thirds of the length of the hulls, the main guns had only lightly armored hoods, the 5.5-inch (140-mm) guns were mounted in the open on the upper deck, and the ships had a high, unprotected freeboard.〔''Conway's All The World's Fighting Ships 1860–1905'', p. 382〕 Their upper decks were planked-over beams without steel plating.〔''Brown, D K ''Warrior to Dreadnought'', p177.〕 The ships also were heavily decorated and furnished with wood, which the Spanish failed to remove before combat and which would feed fires after enemy shell hits.
