A Malayan Dido-class cruiser would find many claimants

If Malaya funded a Dido-class anti-aircraft cruiser, which British admiral would want it?

Almost every fleet commander could use it, with Cunningham, the Home Fleet, and Phillips among the obvious claimants.

An additional anti-aircraft cruiser would interest several competing commands. Cunningham in the Mediterranean, the Home Fleet, and Phillips are all named as likely claimants. The Dido class is not presented as the ideal cruiser, but an available ship would still improve a force with an unfilled requirement.
