AFAIR the Netherlands and Argentina had no heavy cruisers. Pibwl 22:37, 20 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Argentina purchased a pair of Brooklyn class CAs after the war. The USS Phoenix was sunk in the Falklands war. 68.206.21.37 17:43, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

The Brooklyns were light cruisers(CL) according to treaty definitions because of their armament consisting of 6 inch guns. But otherwise they were at least as effetive as the CA's. Nevfennas 18:46, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Washington Naval Treaty

The text say: "The term was given a definition by the Washington Naval Treaty of 1921." but I cannot find any reference to "cruiser" in the text of the Washington Naval Treaty, here]. --Moroboshi 09:36, 26 March 2006 (UTC)

It's actually in the follow-up treaty of London in 1930 [1] Nevfennas 13:46, 26 March 2006 (UTC)
