Armor Model
Overview
During the Civil War, the Spanish Navy lost many ships; for this reason, as soon as the war ended, Spain started rebuilding its navy. In 1940, design work for a destroyer leader commenced. They produced three designs, one of which was Álvaro de Bazán—she was based on an Italian Capitani Romani-class light cruiser. The design was never implemented due to the involvement of Italy in World War II.
