Ship:Hector

21,500 doubloons

Hector — Commonwealth Premium Tier IX Cruiser.

In 1936, Great Britain started designing a cruiser based on a smaller version of the hull of Southampton-class cruisers. As a result, the Fiji-class ships were developed, but if Great Britain had decided to build full-sized AA defense cruisers, a project could have been implemented that embodied an AA defense cruiser based on the hull of a Belfast-class ship.

Pros
