BAP Almirante Guise was a destroyer that served in the Russian, Estonian, and Peruvian navies from 1917 to 1954. She was a rebuilt type of the Izyaslav class. Originally named Avtroil while in Russian service, in 1918 she was captured by Royal Navy and handed over to Estonia where she was renamed Lennuk. The ship participated in the Estonian War of Independence, and served with the Estonian Navy until 1933, when she was sold to Peru where she was renamed Almirante Guise.
Following the collapse of the Russian Empire and the intervention into the Russian Civil War by the Allies, Avtroil, then under Bolshevik control, was captured by Britishcruisers and destroyers in the Baltic in December 1918. The ship was transferred to Estonia, from whom she was purchased by the Peruvian Navy in 1933. The ship was renamed Almirante Guise and served with the Peruvian navy until she was scrapped in 1954.
