Special

La Pampa — Pan-American special premium Tier X destroyer.

A Battle-class destroyer built in the 1940s according to a project that took into account the real experience of war. While still on the slipway, the destroyer could have been purchased by the government of Argentina, which in the post-war decades sought to strengthen its navy by purchasing "surplus" ships from Great Britain and the U.S. La Pampa differs from her British counterparts with her enhanced torpedo armament thanks to the installation of a third torpedo launcher.

La Pampa was first released for sale on 13 November 2024.
