Almirante Grau
The flagships of the Peruvian Navy traditionally bear the name of Admiral Miguel Grau Seminario, with a total of five such ships in history. The third ship bearing this name was purchased from the Netherlands in 1973. Cruiser De Ruyter was laid down in 1939 in Schiedam and completed after the war according to a modified project, which included dual-purpose main battery guns and modern radar equipment. Almirante Grau had been the flagship of the Peruvian Navy for 45 years. At the time of her decommissioning, the ship was the last artillery cruiser belonging to any navy.
