Eendracht

Cruiser Kijkduin was renamed Eendracht while still on the stocks, and her armament composition was altered at the same time. Later on, the ship was captured by the Germans and renamed KH2, with the intention of her becoming part of the Kriegsmarine. After the war ended, the Netherlands continued building Eendracht under a modified project, and the cruiser was renamed De Zeven Provinciën. Former Eendracht entered service in 1953 and remained a naval asset of the Netherlands until 1975 when she was sold to Peru. There, she served as Aguirre and Almirante Grau up until 1999.
