Overview
Type 1936A destroyer Z-39 entered service in 1943, but due to construction faults, she was not ready for combat until 1944. In March 1944, she was transferred to Tallinn to join the 6th Destroyer Flotilla, where she participated in minelaying and shelled Soviet troops. In June, Z-39 was damaged by Soviet aircraft. After repairs, the destroyer accompanied convoys with evacuees from East Prussia and Courland. After the war, she was transferred to the U.S. Navy and renamed DD-939, and in 1948, the ship was handed over to the French Navy, where she served under the name Q-128.
