HNLMS Piet Hein
Yas

I was surprised that Wikipedia had information on this. The refitters did a damn nice job on it, too.

I can't see the name "Piet Hein" without thinking of the old movie "the silver fleet" set in WW2.

It took six years to refit that thing!! And I'm pretty sure the Sultan wasn't working on it over weekends in his backyard. They must have stripped it down to a bathtub and gone bespoke all the way back up.

I would have kept the front turret
