Proxima Centauri 42A Light Combat Ship

When the Starsystem 91B training ship fleet (originally the frigates of the DDS fleet in the 2090s) approached the end of their fatigue lives NS made the surprise decision to extensively rebuild the ships as Light Destroyers. An NS source said the Proxima Centauri gives NS a ship that has "90% of the capability of an Isometric for 60% of the cost of a Corkscrew".

It is planned to withdraw them by 2130, probably replacing them with the Advanced Rome 216A.
