Talk:Churruca-class destroyer (1927)

Latest comment: 3 years ago by Takashi kurita in topic La Carraca

A few questions

edit
  1. José Luis Díez was attempting to break the blockade; which side was she working for at the time?
  2. Can you define or explain "Miranda’s Law"?
  3. She had 5x120mm; how were they laid out? 5x1, I presume, but...; if so, just add a "(5x1)"?
  4. What caliber were her machineguns, & how were they laid out?
  5. If you've got access to the cited source, or you can find the information elsewhere, can you add how many depth charges she carried (if it's mentioned)? (I'd add it to the original Spanish articles, too. And if you've got that information for any other destroyer, add it to their pages, too, while your at it.)

Did the Spanish Navy have a system for naming their destroyers? If so, a mention? TREKphiler hit me ♠ 11:10, 17 July 2008 (UTC)Reply

  1. José Luis Díez was in republican side... (Republican side, have got two diferents territories without comunication by land, North, and south-east, when north down, nationalist blockade the strait to avoid the republican vessel, return to his base in Cartagena)
  2. Did the Spanish Navy have a system for naming their destroyers?

Spanish ships, dont use like HMS (GB), USS (US), ARA (Arg), or SMS (German Empire)... SPS is used for US Navy for name spanish ships, but not is used in spain.

the pennants numbers; since final 1950s, first 1960s, spain use NATO systems (some churrucas, was renumered D-10s and D20s (D-11, D-12..) for first serie (7 first ships)) and D-20s (D21, D22...) for the second serie (se second 7).

Before of this, used like pennat letters.

Division Nacionale

edit

I prefer Nacionales (even redlinked) to Nationalists because the object really isn't to discuss Spain, it's to discuss the party in control of the government. It's the difference between Nazi Party and Nazi Germany. TREKphiler hit me ♠ 00:18, 18 July 2008 (UTC)Reply

because the object really isn't to discuss Spain, it's to discuss the party in control of the government...
Not realy.... Guvernamental sides, want one federal repúblic for spain (Democratic)
Insurgencionist, want one military dictatorship, and them one absolute monarchy (luckyly, now we have got one constitutional monarchy)
Very diferent...

Lost in translation, I think. The article Spain under Franco isn't talking about the Nationalist party so much as what the country was like. TREKphiler hit me ♠ 14:47, 18 July 2008 (UTC)Reply
I've often wondered why we don't have different articles for the Republican and Nationalist factions, they would be more useful than the ones on the political systems they generated, in this context. But in their absence a link to the page that does at least discuss them is better than none. And as this is the English wikipedia Nationalists is more appropriate than Nacionales, or Republicanas, and these are the terms used in our articles on the period, such as the Spanish Civil War.

I do see your point & I don't entirely disagree. I prefer a redlink to encourage the creation of material, & the use of the correct local term with an appropriate translation attached. TREKphiler hit me ♠ 00:58, 18 July 2008 (UTC)Reply
In Spain, this is a Delicate theme... I usually use Guvernametal an insurrectionists or coup participants
Usually used Republicanos (Republicans) and Nacionales (nationals)...
But the people that is to favor Franco (they even exist), Say Nacionales (nationals) and Rojos (Reds)...
Spanish article over Civil War, ALWAIS is protected.

Yeh, in Spain I can see why. That's got to be a 'touchy issue. Is there good article in Spanish on the Nationalists? TREKphiler hit me ♠ 14:47, 18 July 2008 (UTC)Reply

La Carraca

edit

Arsenal de la Carraca (better known as "La Carraca") is in Cadiz, not in Cartagena. (All ships, was constructed in the Arsenal de Cartagena).
