Bordeaux-class destroyer

The Bordeaux-class heavy destroyers were a mainstay of UNSA and USNC fleets from 2102 to 2200. Originally designated as a "fleet support heavy escort", the Bordeaux destroyers saw extensive action during their service. The class was the quintessential early workhorse of the United Nations Space Authority: moderately armed and moderately armored, with reliable reactors and engines, comfortable crew quarters, and solid endurance.
