Delhi: Tier V Commonwealth (India) Cruiser 1933
Ships of the Leander class belonged to a new generation of light cruisers. They significantly differed from their World War I predecessors, particularly in the placement of their main battery guns in turrets. From 1936, Achilles—a Leander-class cruiser—served initially with the New Zealand Division of the Royal Navy and later with the Royal New Zealand Navy. In World War II, the ship took part in the Battle of the River Plate and the Pacific campaign. In 1948, Achilles was handed over to the Indian Navy and renamed Delhi, serving for another three decades thereafter.
