Inter War

Destroyer construction continued during the inter war period initially with designs evolved from the British V & W Class. A major innovation came with the Japanese Fubuki class destroyers or special type of 1928, which introduced enclosed turrets capable of anti-aircraft fire and the 24 inch oxygen fuelled long lance torpedo. Most other nations replied with similar larger type ships examples include the US Porter class destroyer and the British Tribal class destroyer (1936).
