==''Canarias'' class== {{Main|Canarias-class cruiser}} Two ships based on the County class, {{ship|Spanish cruiser|Canarias||2}} and {{ship|Spanish cruiser|Baleares||2}} of the {{sclass|Canarias|cruiser|4}}, were designed in the UK and constructed in Spain by the [[Vickers-Armstrongs]] subsidiary [[Sociedad Española de Construcción Naval]]. Completed in the late 1930s for the [[Spanish Navy]], they saw service during the [[Spanish Civil War]]. Although they shared a common hull, machinery and main armament, the Spanish ships had a notably different appearance, with an enormous single funnel – though ''Canarias'' received two funnels in a later refit – and an equally tall forward superstructure.
