The Spanish destroyer Terror was a ship that served in the Spanish Navy during the Spanish Civil War. It was one of four ships of the Churruca class, named after the Spanish Admiral Churruca, and was originally built in the early 1930s. The ship played a significant role in various operations during the civil war, including engaging in naval battles and escorting convoys. The Terror was eventually captured by Nationalist forces in 1937 and served under their flag for the remainder of the conflict. After the war, the ship was used for training purposes until it was decommissioned in the 1950s. The Terror's fate after decommissioning is unknown, and there is limited information available about its post-service history. Despite its relatively short active service life, the Spanish destroyer Terror remains a notable part of naval history due to its involvement in the Spanish Civil War and its representation of the naval capabilities of the time.
