Rahmat | Tier 6 | Cruiser

British Dido-class cruisers were built primarily to provide anti-aircraft defenses for task forces. For these purposes, twin mounts of dual-purpose 5.25-inch guns were chosen as their main armament. In total, 11 ships of this class were constructed, along with another 5 cruisers built under an improved project. In the 1940s and 1950s, some of the ships were sold to New Zealand and Pakistan, while the rest were sold for scrap. After the war, the Malaysian Navy received several ships, including from Great Britain. It's conceivable that Malaysia might have also considered purchasing these ships.
