Leander — U.K. Tech Tree Tier VI Cruiser.

In 1928, the development of a reconnaissance cruiser that should act in tandem with a fleet commenced. The ship was tasked with leading destroyers and protecting sea communications. HMS Leander was laid down in 1930 and entered service in March 1933 as part of the New Zealand Division. During World War II, Leander intercepted hostile ships in the Pacific and Indian Oceans, and she operated in the Mediterranean during the Syria-Lebanon campaign. The cruiser was hit by a torpedo during the Battle of Kolombangara in 1943 and subsequently remained under repair until the end of the war.
