+ | ===History=== | |||
? | + | ====Design==== | ||
+ | De Zeven Provinciën-class started as the Kijkduin-Class, which was meant to replace the aging Java-Class cruisers. Talks started in 1936. The design was made by the same Engineer as De Ruyter, Ir. G. 't Hooft. At first, the design incorporated only eight guns in twin mounts, but in mid to late 1937 the underfiring turrets were replaced with triples. Around 1939 she was renamed too Eendracht. In 1947 her name was changed to De Ruyter and in 1950 the names of her and her sistership De Zeven Provinciën were swapped. | |||
+ | ====Modifications==== | |||
+ | In 1946 the Eendracht was redesigned in Bath to incorporate lessons learned during the war. BL MK. XXIII was considered but the hull was not designed to incorporate the heavier turrets. A layout of four Bofors twin turrets was eventually agreed upon. The AA would have consisted of 40mm Bofors guns in STAAG mounts. These were eventually replaced with modern radar-controlled single mounts and 57mm twin mounts. The lighter armaments of 12,7mm were to be increased to 20mms but were eventually dropped entirely to redistribute funds. Furthermore, a new electronics suite was added as well as a 10,3cm Bofors Light-Rocket Launcher. These new additions caused her crew requirements to increase into the 900s. She was later refitted to incorporate a Terrier-type missile launcher, replacing her aft turrets. | |||
+ | ||||
+ | ====Service==== | |||
+ | She was laid down before the war and captured by the Germans whilst in progress. But she was never completed nor launched during the war. After the war, the ships were to be completed following a new design and she was commissioned in 1953 as De Zeven Provinciën. In 1962 - 1964 she was rearmed with a Terrier system in place of her aft turrets. In 1975 she was decommissioned and sold to Peru. | |||
+ | ||||
+ | ===Historical Inaccuracies=== | |||
+ | * Her guns do not use Dutch designations. | |||
+ | * Her shell mass and MV should be 46kg and 880m/s. | |||
+ | * Turret IV angle should be 28 degrees instead of 30 degrees from the centerline | |||
+ | * Turret III angle should be 40 degrees instead of 30 degrees from the centerline | |||
+ | * Her historical game-relevant reload rate was 15 RPM. Instead, she has 8,57 RPM. | |||
+ | ||||
+ | ===Trivia=== | |||
+ | * Her sistership, De Ruyter (C801), was launched during World War Two. | |||
+ | * Her sistership, De Ruyter (C801) later Almirante Grau (CLM-81), was the last gun cruiser. Currently scheduled to be a museum ship. | |||
+ | * She's the 7th vessel to carry the name "De Zeven Provinciën" | |||
+ | * At her patch of introduction, she was the highest tier Dutch-designed cruiser, because the other cruisers were Wargaming designs loosely inspired by Project 1047. | |||

De Zeven Provinciën — Dutch special premium Tier VIII cruiser.
The upgraded postwar project for cruiser De Zeven Provinciën. The cruiser started to look like a modern ship—her superstructures had been enlarged; torpedo launchers and on-board hydroplanes removed; 57 mm anti-aircraft artillery mounted; and the number of main guns, which occupied four twin-gun mounts, restored to the value specified in the initial project. De Zeven Provinciën entered service in 1953. Between 1962 and 1964, Terrier missile launchers were installed on board the ship in place of her rear turrets, thus making her a missile cruiser. The ship was sold to Peru in 1975, where she served until 1999.
