An Entity of Type : dbkwik:resource/8Vk4qvWWHqHVaZzlYvTCmQ==, within Data Space : dbkwik.org associated with source dataset(s)

With the realisation that war was approaching, the 13 Grimsby-class sloops were laid down in the mid- to late-1930s. Of these eight were built in the United Kingdom for the Royal Navy, four in Australia for the Royal Australian Navy and one for India. Armament varied considerably between ships with the four Australian ships being similar to HMS Deptford but armed with an additional gun. Losses during World War II were Grimsby, Yarra and Parramatta. Some survivors of this class served into the 1960s.
