Perth Class
The Royal Australian Navy had three Charles F. Adams class units constructed to their own specifications (these ships were designated the Perth class). Although broadly similar to the US Navy's vessels, the Australian ships were fitted with the Ikara system instead of the ASROC that was fitted to the American units. The three ships were:
- HMAS Perth (D 38)
- HMAS Hobart (D 39)
- HMAS Brisbane (D 41)
