Because they were such small modern ships and almost entirely gun oriented, modifications to the Hunts were few and straightforward. The very first addition was radar. It had been planned in 1939 to fit out one in very five of the class with an early form of warning radar (type unknown), but the first ships completed without, mainly due to a general shortage of a type suitable for fitting in small ships. When the first primitive equipment did arrive in the late summer of 1940, it was in the form of weak sets capable of only poor performance and lacking any form of sophistication such as aerial rotation or beam switching. Apart from these initial fittings, the only radar modifications made during the war was the installation at the foremast head of a small set, Type 268. This was a navigation set capable of operating in the surface search mode. Alan Raven is a naval historian, illustrator, and professional ship-model builder whose work frequently appears in magazines. He is the well-known co-author of British Battleships of World War Two and British Cruisers of World War Two, both classic works in the field. He was also the leading light in the publication of warship monographs in the Ensign and Man'o'War series. John Roberts has over ten years' service, including Secretary Defence Operations Staff during the Falklands War and Board Secretary during the first Gulf War. Ten years at sea in three frigates, the cruiser TIGER, flagship during the Tiger Talks and two carriers, CENTAUR and INVINCIBLE. The Hunt class was a class of escort destroyer of the Royal Navy. The first vessels were ordered early in 1939, and the class saw extensive service in the Second World War, particularly on the British east coast and Mediterranean convoys. They were named after British fox hunts. The modern Hunt-class GRP hulled mine countermeasure vessels maintain the Hunt names lineage in the Royal Navy. The Royal Navy had identified the need for two types of destroyer: larger vessels with heavy gun and torpedo armaments for fleet work and another type for escort duties. Although old fleet destroyers could be allocated to escort work, they were unsuitable for the task and new construction replaced them. Fleet destroyers were designed for speed and their machinery was inefficient at convoy speeds, reducing their range. Their shape made them poor sea boats at low speed, also exacerbated by additional equipment on the superstructure. Modifications were needed to ease these problems. The escort vessels forsook the heavy armament and some of the speed of the fleet type to reduce unit cost and better suit mass production and the conditions. This new "fast escort vessel" was later classified as an "escort destroyer". Eighty-six Hunts were completed, of which 72 were commissioned into the Royal Navy and the remaining 14 were transferred to allied navies; Bolebrooke, Border, Catterick, Hatherleigh, Modbury, Bramham and Hursley to the Greek Royal Hellenic Navy, Bedale, Oakley and Silverton to the Free Polish Navy, Glaisdale, Eskdale and Badsworth to the Royal Norwegian Navy and Haldon to the Free French Navy.
