Design and description
Pueyrredón had an overall length of Шаблон:Convert, a beam of Шаблон:Convert, and a mean draft (ship) of Шаблон:Convert. She displaced Шаблон:Convert at normal load. The ship was powered by two vertical triple-expansion steam engines, each driving one shaft, using steam from eight Scotch marine boilers. The engines were designed for a maximum output of Шаблон:Convert and a speed of Шаблон:Convert.[1] She had a cruising range of Шаблон:Convert at Шаблон:Convert.[2] Her complement consisted of 25 officers and 300 enlisted men.[3]
Her main armament consisted of two 40-caliber Armstrong Whitworth [[EOC 10 inch 40 caliber|Шаблон:Convert guns]], in gun turrets fore and aft of the superstructure.[2] The ten 40-caliber quick-firing (QF) [[QF 6 inch /40 naval gun|Шаблон:Convert guns]] that comprised her secondary armament were arranged in casemates amidships on the main deck. Pueyrredón also had six QF [[QF 4.7-inch Gun Mk I–IV|Шаблон:Convert]], four QF 6-pounder Hotchkiss and ten QF 3-pounder Hotchkiss guns to defend herself against torpedo boats. She was also equipped with four above-water Шаблон:Convert torpedo tubes, two on each side.[3]
The ship's waterline armor belt had a maximum thickness of Шаблон:Convert amidships and tapered to Шаблон:Convert towards the ends of the ship. Between the main gun barbettes it covered the entire side of the ship up to the level of the upper deck. The barbettes, the conning tower, and gun turrets were also protected by 5.9-inch armor.[1] Her deck armor ranged from Шаблон:Convert thick.[2]
Construction and career
The ship was launched on 27 July 1898 and served the Argentine Navy until she was stricken on 2 August 1954. Pueyrredón was the last survivor of the Garibaldi class.
