    I can't really see it very well. Could you attach a view of the ship so we could enlarge it?

    Looks like either the Almirante Brown or 25 de Mayo of the Argnentinian Navy.

    Perhaps later in life. I don't know her history from birth to death.
    The same language is spoken, but different country.
    I edited the flag she's flying. ;)
    Think civil war....close to Za.

    You are right. It is the cruiser Canarias. Looks like the Spanish took their cues from the British and Germans with regards to the design.

    Yes indeed !

    A "Porridge" of a number of national concepts. German/British hull, a British wave reducing(?) bulge to the bow, British again for rectangular turrets (with rounded fronts), French "Bearn" type stack, bridge works German with Italian roundness.

    Quite the mixed bag.

    and another

    Well, the destroyer is the "C" class HMS Childers.

    Can't tell what the sub is.
