赫姆克斯海达 is a Tribal-class destroyer that served in the Royal Canadian Navy (RCN) from 1943 to 1963, participating in World War II and the Korean War. She was named for the Haida people. The only surviving Tribal-class destroyer out of 27 vessels constructed for the RCN, Royal Navy and Royal Australian Navy between 1937 and 1945, Haida sank more enemy surface tonnage than any other Canadian warship and as such is commonly referred to as the “Fightingest Ship in the Royal Canadian Navy”

General Characteristics and Role
HMCS Haida is a Tribal-class destroyer that served in the Royal Canadian Navy (RCN) from 1943 to 1963. She is one of only two Tribal-class destroyers still in existence and is Canada’s most fightingest ship, having sunk more enemy surface tonnage than any other RCN warship. Originally designed for naval combat, the Tribal class were powerful, well-armed ships that served as fleet destroyers and convoy escorts. Haida saw extensive action during World War II, primarily in the English Channel and the Arctic, and later served in the Korean War. She is now preserved as a museum ship and a National Historic Site of Canada in Hamilton, Ontario.

- Retained the original torpedo tubes (though often removed or modified in other Tribal-class ships).
Service and Legacy
- World War II: Participated in the “Battle of the Bay of Biscay” and the Normandy invasion support operations (Operation Neptune), earning a reputation as a highly aggressive fighter.
- Korean War: Served two combat tours in the Korean War, primarily performing “train busting” shore bombardment missions and blockade duties.
- Nickname: Known as the “Fightingest Ship in the RCN” due to her combat record.
- Museum Status: Decommissioned in 1963, she was saved from scrap by a foundation and restored. She is currently part of Parks Canada’s historic fleet and remains an enduring symbol of Canadian naval prowess.
