HNLMS Isaac Sweers was the first of the Gerard Callenburgh Class destroyers. The class was supposed to have 4 destroyers, but production was cut shot due to the German invasion. Only Isaac Sweers and her sistership Gerard Callenburgh served in WWII. HNLMS Gerard Callenburgh was scuttled by the Dutch, but the Germans repaired it and it did service for the Germans under the name ZH1.
