Type 47b Destroyer Drenthe

By Jantinus Mulder

After World War II, the Royal Netherlands Navy ordered new ships to counter the growing threat coming from the Soviet submarines. These ships were classified as ASW destroyers (onderzeebootjagers), but close to contemporary destroyers in terms of specifications. The national industry designed and constructed two classes of these ships. Drenthe was of the more capable Type 47B series. This book presents an overview of the development and operational use of the Type 47B Destroyer Drenthe with many photos and illustrations.
