Naval surface combatant vessels exceeding 600 tons (610 metric tons), but not exceeding 2,000 tons (2,032 metric tons) standard displacement, provided they have none of the following characteristics:
- Mount a gun above 6.1 inch (155 mm) calibre;
- Mount more than four guns above 3 inch (76 mm) calibre;
- Are designed or fitted to launch torpedoes;
- Are designed for a speed greater than twenty knots.
This time the requirments are pretty straightfoward. Its aprill 1930, and your nation is a signatory in the London Naval Treaty (or any equalent with same codex in your universum at corresponding timeframe)
EDIT: I decided to be bit more lax in the requirments for the country vs. signatory. since quite many AUs disregards such treaties and I dont like to make single nation(s) spesific challenges. The technical requirments Still aply.
