The British light cruiser Somonas, named after the God of Sleep
The Somonas cruiser is a project based on the modernization of the British Navy’s light cruisers in the Dido class and Edinburgh class
Due to its initial plan to carry a 133mm naval gun with a lower firing rate
Not enough to cope with the threat posed by the rapid development of aviation technology in the later stages of World War II
So all of them were replaced with 113mm RP10 Mark IV naval guns
After the war, this type of naval gun became the standard main gun caliber for British Navy destroyers
This class will replace the rear torpedo group with a more advanced anti-aircraft gun group
And added anti-aircraft firepower and electronic equipment to make it more adept at dealing with aerial fighter jets
