Pan_asia Destroyer
The navy development program adopted by the new government of China in the late 1920s, among other things, included destroyers. In 1929, the Chinese turned to the British company Thornycroft, which suggested a project for a destroyer leader (internal index T.306). The project as a whole resembled the British leaders constructed at the end of World War I, and it would have been a fitting response to the Japanese destroyers built in the 1910s and 20s; however, the project was never implemented due to a lack of funding.
