Z-52

In the early 1940s, the construction of destroyers running on diesel fuel began. Type 1942 became the first in the series and served as the basis for Z-51, which was laid down in 1943. Later, Type 1944 arrived, fitted with increased firepower. Five destroyers, from Z-52 to Z-56, were laid down in 1943 at the Deschimag shipyard. However, bombardments by Allied forces, a lack of materials, and the need to build submarines led to the construction of these destroyers being canceled in 1944.
