España-class sisters on opposite sides

Did the España-class ships on opposite sides of the Spanish Civil War ever fight each other?

No. They served opposing factions but never met in battle, although Jaime I may have been in the better condition.

An audience question asks whether the sister ships ever met in combat after landing on opposite sides of the civil war. They did not. Jaime I may have held an advantage because the Nationalist España had already suffered significant self-inflicted damage. Guns salvaged from the original España also continued the class's story as coastal batteries.
