| Allen
M Sumner Class
The US Naval Bureau of
Ships proposed a new design of destroyer which had the design of
enclosed 5-inch gun turrets. (similar to the larger ships). The
advantage this gained over the previous Fletcher design was more space
saved from overcrowding on the previous design this would give space for
more AA armament.
Displacement: 2200
tons, speed: 36.5 knots, Range 3300 nm at 20 Knots
Armament: six 5 - inch guns. Twelve 40mm AA guns, Ten 21 inch
torpedo Tubes. Crew: 336 / 350
