HSwMS Karlskrona was a destroyer of the Royal Swedish Navy that served during the Second World War and in the Cold War. The fourth member of the Göteborg or city class, which was designed as an improvement on the previous Ehrensköld class, Karlskrona was launched on 16 June 1939. The destroyer served in the Coastal Fleet during the war, protecting Swedish neutrality and escorting convoys. After the war, the ship was upgraded between 1950 and 1951 with enhanced fire control and an armament improved with the introduction of the Bofors 40 mm anti-aircraft gun. Ten years later, in 1961, Karlskrona was designated a fast anti-submarine frigate and the torpedo tubes were replaced by Squid mortars. The vessel was decommissioned on 1 July 1974 and broken up in 1979.

Fartyget byggdes vid Karlskronavarvet och levererades 12 september 1940 som fjärde fartyg i Göteborg-klassen. Mellan 1948 och 1951 genomfördes en ombyggnad, då bland annat skrovet breddades och mellan 1958 och 1963 byggdes fartyget om till fregatt. Karlskrona utrangerades 1974 vartefter hon användes som målfartyg och sedan skrotades. (sv)
