G-class destroyer (1944)

The G class destroyers were a proposed class of eight destroyers of the Royal Navy ordered during the Second World War under the 1944 Programme. Two were ordered (from Yarrow) on 24 July 1944, and six more on 30 August 1944, but all were cancelled on 13 December 1945, after the end of the war.

The class was to be an improvement on the Weapon class destroyer. It has been referred to as the Gael class or Gallant class of destroyers.
