Weymouth — U.K. Tech Tree Tier II Cruiser.

Up until the late 1910s, the British Navy built cruisers that weren't designed to act as reconnaissance and squadron patrols but were used for this purpose regardless. In 1909, they resumed the construction of the First Class cruisers. Sturdy and fast ships of the Weymouth type gained the respect of British sailors. Having entered service in 1911, HMS Weymouth participated in the hunt for the German raiders Emden and Königsberg. Between 1916 and 1917, she operated in the Adriatic Sea and British waters.
