HNLMS Sumatra was the second of the Java-class light cruisers built for the Royal Netherlands Navy. Laid down on 15 July 1916, she was not launched until 20 December 1920. www.destinationsjourney.com/historical-m... #maritimehistory #NavalHistory #cruiser #RoyalNetherlandsNavy #HNLMSSumatra
HNLMS Sumatra was the second of the Java-class light cruisers built for the Royal Netherlands Navy. Laid down on 15 July 1916, she was not launched until 20 December 1920. Her commissioning did not occur until 26 May 1926 because her intended turbines were destroyed in a fire. Sumatra spent most of the inter-war years in the Dutch East Indies. In 1938 she returned to the Netherlands. When Germany over-ran the Netherlands, Sumatra left for England. After transporting Princess Juliana of the Netherlands and her daughters to Canada, Sumatra undertook convoy escort duties until late 1940. She then left for the Dutch East Indies where she was laid up for an extensive overhaul. At the start of hostilities with Japan, she was still undergoing the refit but was quickly re-activated and manned mainly by midshipmen, sailed for England. Problems with her propulsion made her unfit for duty and she was laid up in Portsmith. In 1944 she was transferred to the Royal Navy and scuttled off the coast of Normandy on 9 June 1944 at Ouistreham, as part of a gooseberry pier to protect an artificial Mulberry Harbour built by the Allies as part of Operation Overlord. On 14 February 1951 her wreck was auctioned with other wrecks to be scrapped.

HNLMS Jacob van Heemskerck was a light cruiser of the Tromp-class in the Royal Netherlands Navy, named after Admiral Jacob van Heemskerk. Originally designed as a flotilla leader and a torpedo cruiser in Decker’s Fleet Plan of 1931, the ship was commissioned on 10 May 1940, when Germany invaded the Netherlands. Since she was not armed, she escaped to the United Kingdom where she was refitted as an air defence cruiser. During World War II, the ship was assigned as a convoy escort in the Atlantic Ocean and gained the nickname “Oude Jacob” due to her proficiency, and not a single convoy ship was lost when she was on duty. In January 1942, the ship was sent to the Dutch East Indies to reinforce the defence fleet assembled there, arriving too late to take part in the Battle of the Java Sea. She was then reassigned to the Eastern Fleet and took part in operations ‘Stream’ and ‘Jane’, both aimed at the retaking of Madagascar. In November 1942, the cruiser identified and damaged the German supply vessel and blockade runner Ramses, which was subsequently scuttled by her own crew in the Indian Ocean. After the war, Jacob van Heemskerck served as a barracks ship for naval trainees in Vlissingen before being decommissioned on 20 November 1969. The ship was eventually sold for scrap on 23 June 1970.

HMNLS Java was a cruiser of the Royal Netherlands Navy. She was hit by a Japanese torpedo at the Battle of the Java Sea ripping the stern off the ship. www.destinationsjourney.com/historical-m... #HMNLSJava #NavalHistory #MaritimeHistory #WW2 #cruiser #RoyalNetherlandsNavy #BattleoftheJavaSea
HMNLS Java was a cruiser of the Royal Netherlands Navy that served during the interwar period and World War II. She was named after the Indonesian island of Java and was built at the Koninklijke Maatschappij de Schelde shipyard in Flushing, the Netherlands. Java was launched on August 6, 1921, and commissioned on May 1, 1925, after fitting out. Java was present at the Battle of the Java Sea on February 27, 1942. During the battle, she was hit by a Japanese Long Lance torpedo fired from IJN Nachi, which exploded inside the aft magazine, ripping off the stern off the ship. Massive flooding started in the aft engine room while the anti-aircraft deck was engulfed by flames. Java took a heavy list to port, and the electrical equipment shut down. Deprived of any means to save her, the captain ordered to abandon ship.
