Background
About the ship
Eritrea, a sloop, was developed between 1932 and 1934 for service in African colonies. To increase the operating range, the ship was equipped with electric motors from Balilla-class submarines. She was also equipped with a hospital, generating stations for submarine service, and minesweeping equipment. Eritrea served in the Spanish Civil War, and in the 1930s, she served in the Red Sea. In 1948, she was transferred to the French Navy and saw action in Indochina and the Pacific Ocean.
