For those wanting more info...

Niobe: ex Dutch Gelderland coastal defense ship.
Undine: ex Dutch Vliereede coastal defense ship.
Ariadne: ex Dutch Ijmuiden coastal defense ship.

Arcona: Originally a German pre-World War One cruiser.

When I first saw this news item yesterday I was going to launch into a mini rant about H-P coming out without such obscure AA ships only because they were German.

They then redeemed themselves by also announcing the upcoming RN London class cruisers, so I'll give them a gold star.
