| 55k | USS Capps was transferred to Spain directly from the reserve fleet and essentially in her WW II configuration. Subsequently, in the 1960s the Spanish Navy decided to modernize and standardize the electronics suit of its five Fletchers. For Lepanto, as far as radar is concerned, this meant SPS-6 and -10 search radars, a tripod foremast to support their heavier antennas, and a Mk.25 substituted for the older sets previously associated to her Mk.37 gun director. All of these modifications are clearly visible against the evening sky in this January 20, 1980, photo taken at Barcelona, Spain. | Fabio Peña |
