The construction of a large number of destroyers in the absence of cruisers raised a discussion in the U.S. Navy about the need to produce destroyer leaders. Some officers suggested creating an intermediate ship type that would combine the features of a cruiser and a destroyer. After a series of sketches, a project for the destroyer leader with a displacement of 2,200 tons and equipped with five 127 mm guns was proposed. The beginning of the construction of the Omaha-class cruisers eventually eliminated the need for a destroyer leader, and it was decided to abandon the construction of this class.

This ship was a proposed 'large' destroyer (or destroyer leader) during the late part of World War I and Post-war. The Bureau of Construction and Repair began to consider these designs in 1917. One influence were letters written by Captain H.P. Huse suggesting the merger of light cruiser and destroyer types, an idea which had much merit and was put forth often in that particular period.


The Nicholas-class Destroyer is a Tier 5 ship in the U.S.A. destroyer Tech Tree.
This ship leads to the Farragut-class Destroyer.

Historical Info

First sketches were of 'flush deckers' armed with either six 5" guns and two triple Torpedo Tubes, or four 5" guns and four Torpedo Tubes. The ultimate design (February 1919), was a 2,200-ton boat mounting five 5" guns on the centerline with twelve Torpedo Tubes mounted on the wings.



The final design would have provided the following armament:


5-In/51 x5

3-In. AA x2

21-In. TT 4x3

None of these designs ever made it to the production stage.

Special Note:

After an extensive search, the 'class' name of Nicholas produced no results whatsoever in relation to the 1919 Destroyer Leader. As such, one can only ascertain this was a 'placeholder' name. Should the development team ever seek to properly name this particular class, it would be suggested they use 'Huse'.
