The Destroyer Hamburg was a warship of the German Navy and the type ship of the class 101 / 101A (Hamburg class). It was in service from 1964 to 1994.
history
The Hamburg was named after the state of Hamburg. This was the third warship to be named Hamburg . The first Hamburg was a wheel corvette during the Schleswig-Holstein survey . In the Imperial Navy , a small cruiser was called Hamburg .
The Hamburg was, together with the frigates of the Cologne class, the first large warship to be built for the German Navy . She was built as a type ship of class 101 at the HC Stülcken Sohn shipyard in Hamburg. On January 20, 1959, she was laid down as the destroyer "ZA" with hull number 890. It was christened “Hamburg” and launched on March 26, 1960. Completion was delayed due to an explosion in the forecastle, and the ship did not enter service until March 23, 1964.
She was initially subordinated to the 1st destroyer squadron in Kiel. When the 2nd destroyer squadron was set up on April 1, 1965 in Wilhelmshaven , Hamburg was subordinated to it.
The destroyer Hamburg was assigned the Hull number D 181 and the radio call sign DBZK when it was put into service. On December 1, 1981, the radio call sign was changed to DRAA .
From 1975 to 1976 the Hamburg was modernized to class 101A. It received, among other things, a more modern armament with missiles of the Exocet MM 38 type and a closed and larger bridge.
During the so-called " Cold War " and the time afterwards, the usual training and standby service was performed. The destroyer Hamburg was often used in NATO formations . In 1984 she served as the flagship of the first German association leader of the SNFL (NATO-Einsatzverband Atlantik).
Only shortly before the end of the service did the Hamburg take part in an active military operation, the blockade of Yugoslavia as part of the ( Operation Sharp Guard ) between 1992 and 1993 in the Adriatic.
On February 20, 1994, the Hamburg was decommissioned. In 1998 it was sold to Navales via Vebeg , brought to Spain and demolished there.
The traditional name of Hamburg was given to the second frigate of class 124 (Saxony class) on August 16, 2002 .
