250-702: The Caldwell class was improved to keep "A" mount from being constantly washed out; however, this was unsuccessful. The Caldwell s had a cutaway stern rather than the cruiser stern of the later ships, and thus had a tighter turning radius than their successors. The armament of the Sampson s was retained, but the broadside 4-inch (102 mm) guns were relocated to "bandstands" aft of the bridge. There were differences in appearance; Caldwell , Craven and Manley were built with four "stacks" (funnels), while Gwin , Conner and Stockton had only three. The middle stack of

325-624: The capacity to lift 200 Marines and four 11 m (36 ft) Higgins assault boats ( LCP(L) , LCP(R), or LCVP ). She saw action at Guadalcanal , Kwajalein , Saipan , and the Philippines . Three entered Royal Navy service in 1940 under the Destroyers for Bases Agreement as part of the Town class . Conner , serving as HMS Leeds , provided cover at Gold Beach on 6 June 1944; her sisters served as convoy escorts . All three survived

350-494: The center shaft exhausted to low-pressure turbines on the outboard shafts. A geared cruising turbine was provided on the center shaft for fuel economy at low and moderate speeds. Caldwell had two shafts with two Curtis geared turbines and two separate cruising turbines. The latter were connected via an experimental "electric speed reducing gear", a forerunner of the turbo-electric drive that would be used on several US battleships and aircraft carriers built from World War I through

375-534: The fourth as a high speed transport . The six Caldwell -class torpedo boat destroyers were authorized by Congress under the Act of 3 March 1915, "to have a speed of not less than thirty knots per hour [sic] and to cost, exclusive of armor and armament, not to exceed $ 925,000.00 each ...Provided, that three of said torpedo-boats herein authorized shall be built on the Pacific Coast ." Built from 1916 to 1918,

425-412: The initial design with DD-70 and DD-71. Typically, a single depth charge rack was provided aft, along with a Y-gun depth charge projector forward of the aft deckhouse. As a somewhat experimental class, the Caldwell s differed in their engineering. Conner and Stockton , built by Cramp, followed the class's original design, with three-shaft direct drive steam turbines . A high-pressure turbine on

450-484: The six ships of the Caldwell class were the first of 279 ordered (6 of which were cancelled) to a flush-decked design to remove the forecastle break weakness of the preceding Sampson class and other "thousand tonners". They were effectively prototypes of the mass production Wickes and Clemson -class vessels which followed them, although somewhat slower (30–32 knots (56–59 km/h) vs. 35 knots (65 km/h)) and differing in some details. The forward sheer of

475-401: The three-stack ships was wider due to combining two boiler uptakes. Once the mass-production destroyers made the design prevalent, the Caldwell s and their successors became known as "flush-deck" or "four-stack" destroyers. Manley was converted to a prototype high-speed destroyer transport ( hull classification symbol APD ) in 1939, with her forward stacks and boilers removed to give her

500-484: The time. A factor in the size of the torpedo armament was the General Board 's decision to use broadside rather than centerline torpedo tubes. This was due to the desire to have some torpedoes remaining after firing a broadside, and problems experienced with centerline mounts on previous classes with torpedoes striking the gunwales of the firing ship. The Mark 8 torpedo was equipped. The "bandstand" location of

575-401: The waist 4-inch guns kept the mounts dry, but restricted the firing arc. These ships carried a 3-inch (76 mm) 23 caliber anti-aircraft (AA) gun, typically just aft of the bow 4-inch gun. The original design called for two 1-pounder AA guns, but these were in short supply and the 3-inch gun was more effective. Anti-submarine (ASW) armament was added during World War I, or included in

600-415: The war, two being sunk as targets and one scrapped, postwar. The armament repeated that of the preceding Sampson -class of "thousand tonners", and would be retained in the subsequent mass production "flush deckers". While the gun armament was typical for destroyers of this period, the torpedo armament of twelve 21-inch (533 mm) torpedo tubes was larger than usual, in accordance with American practice at

625-521: Was a class of six " flush deck " United States Navy destroyers built during World War I and shortly after. Four served as convoy escorts in the Atlantic ; the other two were completed too late for wartime service. Two were scrapped during the 1930s, but four survived to serve throughout World War II , three of these in service with the Royal Navy under the Destroyers for Bases Agreement and
