Sailing to Singapore

Berengar stood onboard the Honoria-class Corvette, which had replaced the previous iteration of the ship known as Queen Honoria's Revenge. This corvette was essentially a Ritter von Bettinger-class Destroyer that was scaled down to the size of a corvette.

The ship had a complement of 65 people, and consisted of a limited armament of one 127mm automatic gun, two 20mm point defense systems, and four torpedo tubes. At the moment anti-ship missiles were still under development, but once the technology was perfected, Honoria's crew would be able to modify their vessel to accept a such weapons.

There were a total of three Adela-class Destroyers which acted as escorts to the smaller ship. These ships each housed a detachment of marines who would be accompanying Honoria and her girls on their journey to Australia.
