    What a great picture! Notice the famed bridge under construction in the background?
  • Antoine R said:
    Of course this is not HMAS Australia or Canberra but one of the V/W group destroyers. Her sizes and torpedo tubes amidships say that the ship is rather destroyer. The first funnel is taller than the second and other details of appearance say this is a V/W group destroyer. The RAN had four such ships: Vampire, Vendetta, Voyager and Waterhen. Only one of them - the Vendetta - had twin TTs when completed. That's why I think this is HMAS Vendetta.

    Antoine R [http://www.flickr.com/photos/51979177@N02] Then we have a problem with the ship, because the VENDETTA (1) was in the Mediterranean from 1924-33.
    Vendetta served in the Mediterranean with the 1st and 5th Flotillas from 1924 to 1933. In 1933 the Admiralty agreed to loan the Flotilla Leader Stuart (I) and four 'V' and 'W' Class destroyers ( Vampire (I), Vendetta, Voyager (I) and Waterhen (I)) to the Royal Australian Navy as replacements for the 'S' Class destroyers ( Stalwart (I), Success, Swordsman, Tasmania and Tattoo) and the Flotilla Leader Anzac (I), then due for scrapping. Vendetta and the other four ships commissioned in the Royal Australian Navy at Portsmouth on 11 October 1933 to form the Australian Destroyer Flotilla, later to become famous as the 'Scrap Iron Flotilla'.

    I was wrong. The ship is surely HMAS Anzac (the second funnel isn't seen). For to compare: www.flickr.com/photos/41311545@N05/3948362840/in/photolis...
