Caradoc - Tier III Commonwealth (Canada) Cruiser 1917

Built in Great Britain in 1916 and 1917, the Caledon-class cruisers were known for their compact size and impressive speed. Armed with torpedoes, these cruisers were specifically designed for squadron reconnaissance and to provide support for destroyer operations. Cruiser Caradoc, a ship of this class, saw action in World War I and other conflicts before being reassigned to the North America and West Indies Station in the late 1920s. In the initial stages of World War II, Caradoc was stationed in Canada and played a role in Allied operations in the North Atlantic.
