Klas Horn — European Tier IV destroyer.

Planning to strengthen its fleet, the Swedish government began negotiations with the United States on the acquisition of several "flush-deck" destroyers. The purchase never took place, but their design formed the basis of the Ehrensköld-class destroyers laid down in 1924. Further development in 1929 resulted in two ships of an improved design being laid down - Klas Horn and Klass Uggla. The lead ship of the Klas Horn series was built at the Kochums shipyard in Malmö. In September 1941, due to an explosion at a military base, both destroyers suffered signidicant damage and sank. Klas Uggla was not restored and was decommissioned, while Klas Horn was raised and repaired using parts from her sister ship.
