Prince-class destroyer: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 14:47, 23 August 2024

The Prince-class destroyer is a class of four guided missile destroyers currently in service in the Wiltshire Navy. The class is primarily designed for anti-aircraft and anti-missile warfare. The first of her class, the WNS Prince, was laid down on March 20, 3020 and is was launched on March 30, 3020. She was constructed along the second of her class, WNS Fox, being followed shortly by WNS Mitchell. One more of the class is expected in April 3020, WNS Murray, with potential for another fleet of them in the future.

The class was first announced by Secretary of Foreign and Defence Affairs, Min Zife, in early March 3020. The announcement for the ship, along with the founding of the Wiltshire Naval Force, came along with a big push for increased military spending from Audrick Hill's government. The entire class will cost upwards of 5.5 billion CM and will be included in the two Carrier Strike Groups, led by WNS Cassin Young and WNS Kitty Hawk.
