The Type 101 Hamburg class was the only class of destroyers built during post-war Germany. They were specifically designed to operate in the Baltic Sea, where armament and speed is more important than seaworthiness. They were named after Bundeslaender (states of Germany) of West Germany. The German shipyard Stuelcken was contracted to design and build the ships. Stuelcken was rather inexperienced with naval shipbuilding, but got the order, since the shipyards traditionally building warships for the German navies like Blohm + Voss, Howaldtswerke or Luerssen were all occupied constructing commercial vessels (no naval ship had been built in Germany since World War II).
