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.
De Zeven Provinciën first went on sale on 12 August 2021.
