|Aircraft Carried=Up to x6 drones x4 ASW Helicopters}}The '''Perennial-Class Corvette''' is a class of guided-missile corvettes currently in service with multiple nations, working as an affordable multi-mission vessel capable of filling any possible surface combat role.
== Development==
The Perennial-Class Corvette began development in 2205 under [[PLAID]]'s Suface Intercept Forces Engineering division. Intended at first to be a light corvette to fill [[Hearthia]]'s request for a smaller warship than the Mythic FFG and as a squadron leader for Pavise NCPVs, the first design spec entered production in 2206 at a cost of $120,000 pesos. Featuring a large helicopter bay and a tremendous ASUW battery of 32 ASHMs, the ship met all design goals and was deemed perfectly suitable for the fleet. However, it was quickly determined by PLAID engineers that the superstructure could hold more equipment, and a large sea drone bay, crane, and 32-cell full-bore VLS bay was added to the center of the ship, raising costs to $140,000. The first batch of four ships delivered to PLAID were upgraded to this specification while under construction, and the upgrade package was deemed cost effective and retained, with the ships being redesignated as heavy corvettes to befit the dramatically expanded armament.
==Design and Armament==

[[File:PerennialVLS.png|left|thumb|452x452px|Perennial VLS layout, post Bravo specification]]
Designed as a reliable surface combatant intended to do any single mission independently, the Perennial-class's defining feature was the extremely large small craft capability, with a helicopter bay large enough to fit four Izinyo heavy attack helicopters and a drone bay able to store six sea or air drones. These drones, designed specifically for the Perennial, can be used for surface bombardment, land fire support, radar picket, ISR, and ASW warfare, among others.

Sensor systems were left nearly identical to the preceding Pavise NCPVs, with SNOOP-R search radars and STIR-BRAVO illuminators. Befitting the original air warfare spec of 24 ESSMs, the ship was only equipped with two STIR illuminators, and this was not upgraded when the midships VLS cells were added, leading to some concerns that the ship could be saturated.

In order to maintain effective submarine hunting capability and enable rapid redeployment of the corvettes, the Perennial-class is equipped with a massive PLAID SVK-45 gas turbine powerpack, allowing the ships to reach 33.2 knots fully loaded. This powerpack composes an entire third of the ship's hull cost.

For a corvette, the Perennial-Class is extremely heavily armed. Her antiship battery of 32 RGM-84s or LRASMs is mounted beneath the bridge inside the superstructure, protected by retractable doors. On the aft upper deck are 24 ESSM cells for point defence- these are backed up by two Mk49 RAM mounts located fore and aft, for a total of 66 self defence weapons. After the Bravo specification was put to sea an additional 32 cells for RIM-66 or SA-35 Surtur was fitted centerline, bringing her AAW missile total to 98. Two Phalanxes provide final missile defence.

All of this equipment in the upper superstructure makes the ship dangerously top-heavy and vulnerable to capsizing under battle damage.

==Foreign Sales==
In 2205 following release of the design specifications, [[Novenad]] placed a 750k contract for eight Perennials. The order was delivered at the end of 2206 with stellar reviews.

Despite initial interest from the Hearthian Boat Organization, the [[Imperial Union|IRN]] undercut the PLAID offer by delivering four Helios-class Corvettes free of charge to the Hearthians, filling their budget. Interest remained in the event the HBO sustained losses.

In 2207, Luminor placed a 6M order for 30 Perennials, which was delivered at the end of the year. The order came with sixty anti-submarine drones for the Perennial's mission bays.

==Service History==

Four Perennials were initially ordered for PLAID's Surface Interdiction Groups, with an immediate followup order of four more.

== Development==
The Orion-Class Frigate began development in 2185 under [[VAE system]]'s subsidiary [[VSD]] to meet the [[IRN]]'s new requirements for a next-generation escort/patrol frigate that could incorporate newly introduced technology at a lower cost than its traditional counterparts. In consideration of the newly deployed [[Huntsman-class Destroyer]] and the planned requirements of the [[Klaes-Haydn Class Cruiser|Air Warfare Destroyer/Cruiser]], the VSD's proposal revolved around the [[FROSTON Industries]]' new CRYSTAL (Combat Radar Yellow, Search and Track Array Luminator) system in order to provide basic-level fleet air protection at a low cost. Due to weak competition from other designers or lack thereof, the proposal was approved by the Imperial Navy Design Committee in 2186, and an initial order of 5 frigates was placed to be delivered by the end of the following year.
==Design and Armament==
[[File:Screenshot237.png|left|thumb|Reinforced keel of HMS Vega]][[File:Screenshot219.png|left|thumb|298x298px|Lead ship HMS ''Orion'' under-going sea trials, 2189]]As a next-generation surface combatant geared for escort and patrol duties, the Orion-class incorporated a wide range of new Imperial technology that pioneered their use on other vessels through out the Imperial Armed Forces. One noteworthy example is the inclusion of a reinforced keel for greater ASW effectiveness and survivability in case of a torpedo hit to the keel. While traditional keels would succumb to even indirect detonation, the newly introduced reinforcements will allow current and future Orion frigates to be combat-effective even after a direct torpedo hit.

Froston Industries' CRYSTAL system saw its first deployment on the Orions, with two arrays being mounted on the sides of the superstructure aft of the main bridge. While it does not provide full coverage of the combat area, the two arrays combined with secondary SIMPSON radar and illuminators enable long-range tracking of up to 16 enemy contacts, a marked increase from the preceding Acheron Class. Crew and technical data garnered from the radar systems onboard the lead ship HMS Orion during its initial combat trials allowed researchers at FROSTON Industries and VAE Shipyards to perfect system and software integration for their upcoming Future Air Warfare Destroyer/Cruiser project.

One of the most obvious changes made from VSD's initial proposal is the marked increase in maximum speed. While the original design was projected to reach a maximum speed of 20 knots using traditional diesel-electric propulsion, the IRN demanded the ship be capable of reaching 30 knots in order to keep up with Imperial Carrier fleets. To accommodate for this demand, VAE Shipyards replaced their traditional propulsion-power system with Froston Industries' Electric Propulsion Motor Mk3 and a M1800 Gas Turbine generator. Although slightly more costly than their traditional counterparts, it was discovered in HMS Orion's maiden voyage that the new systems were far more efficient and reliable in long-term operations, prompting the IRN to investigate the possibilities of refitting major combatants to utilise the new technology.

The frigate also boasts an impressive arsenal for its size with 48 VLS cells fore of the bridge, one 57mm naval gun, one SeaRAM launcher, two Phalanx CIWS systems and two 4 cell AshM launchers located amidships. In its standard escort configuration the VLS cells are designed to accommodate ESSM medium range interceptor missiles but they are also able to be outfitted with RIM-66 long-range interceptors or a limited range of cruise missiles to supplement the 8 AshMs stored in box launchers.

Another noteworthy feature of the Orion-class is the large mission bay located amidships. Despite the frigate's small size, the mission bay is able to accommodate up to two [[K-53B II]] VTOL Fighters or ASW Helicopters as well as two [[BIMO]] (Boat, Inflatable, Multi-service Operational) high-maneuverability boats, giving the Orion its characteristic mission flexibility.[[File:Screenshot222.png|left|thumb|HMS ''Orion'' conducting a routine operation off the coast of Westray.]]

==Foreign Sales==
In November 2186, VAE Shipyards was awarded with a 1.5M Kredit contract by the IRN to produce 5 frigates with an option for 15 additional frigates after the initial delivery. However, following the ship's stellar performance during its maiden voyage and combat trials that far exceeded application, the order was expanded to 5+20, all expected to be delivered by the end of 2201.

Both the [[Confederate Coast Guard]] and Navy expressed interest in the frigate even during its design phase at VSD. The frigate's cost-effectiveness combined with its large mission bay made it a strong contender for the two service's future combatant program, and by 2187, contracts for 10 frigates from the Coast Guard and 8 for the Navy were awarded to VAE Shipyards. All 18 frigates were delivered and are in active service under the two services.

'''Fish Island''' is a small city-state located in the southernmost waters of Greater Baskay Bay, and the second largest of [[Kerbin|Kerbin's]] ice islands. Variously host to research stations, military bases, and small communities of civilian residents, it’s population fluctuates wildly, with fishing making up its only tangible industry. Though historically [[Spearka|Spearkan]] territory, the island has been highly contested since the 2060s, particularly by the nations of [[Aquaria]] and [[Zokesia]].
[[File:Fish Island.png|thumb|400x400px|Fish Island in June 2200.]]
[[Aquaria]] initially guaranteed the independence of Fish Island in 2062, however this was judged officially void after the island melted. Nevertheless, it held a de facto policy of ensuring the iceberg did not fall outside the control of a Baskian nation. [[Zokesia]] has maintained a claim on Fish Island since 2062, and [[Feliskia]] likewise laid a claim in 2072, though the status of this is now dubious. in 2200, [[Ikonia]] reinstated it's Spearkan claim of the island.

==Etymology==
It's an island full of fish, don't read too much into it.
==Geography==
Fish Island is located in Greater Baskay Bay off the coast of the Southern Ice Sheet. Like it’s much larger cousin Soltem, Fish Island is a topographic anomaly, it’s surface consisting entirely of an almost perfectly flat frozen sheet with no natural elevation changes, and it is believed that the entire above-water volume of the nation is solely comprised of ice. Sheer cliffs surround the island, rendering it only accessible by air and one of the most inhospitable places on Kerbin.

Despite being commonly misidentified as an iceberg, Fish Island is in fact a subaqueous butte, possibly laccolithic in origin. The 'island' itself is the tip of an igneous rock pillar that rises steeply over 990m from the seabed, protruding 70m above the surface of the ocean. Ice formations form along the pycnocline of the relatively deep shores, with the rocky outcrop acting as a nucleus for ice formation. As such, a layer of ice over 10m thick and extending hundreds of meters out to sea encircles the island.

This rocky core means that Fish Island can not be 'melted', as it is not entirely comprised of ice. However, it can certainly be diminished, and the island was almost entirely obliterated by a NMC kinetic bombardment which melted away the entire ice mass surrounding the rocky core. By the 23rd century, ice nucleation has progressed to the extent that the island has returned to 97% of it's original state.
[[File:Fish Island Depth.png|thumb|A 3D reconstruction of a LiDAR scan shows the steep pillar of rock that rises from the seabed to form Fish Island. |left]]
===Climate ===
Effectively part of the Southern Ice Sheet, Fish Island receives no rainfall and even during comparatively warm seasons experiences only bitingly cold temperatures. Its positioning additionally leaves it exposed to strong, cold winds year round, and blizzards frequently blanket the entire island in colder months.
===Biodiversity ===
Fish Island has no native animal life or vegetation, however the seas around it are unsurprisingly teeming with fish. In 2164, a Zokesian biology student who was studying the effects of the Antarctic climate on avian magnetoreception accidentally released a breeding pair of [[lyrus birds]] from their aviary. Having no natural predators on the island, the couple successfully progenerated a colony of the colorful birds across the territory. They subsist today on the oddments of the island's active fishing industry, being unable to feed directly from the sea like other pelagic birds. Having descended from a domestic pair, the population is well adjusted to kerbal interaction, and there are no known incidents of kleptoparasitic feeding behavior. As such, a flock of lyrus birds accompanying a ship is seen as a sign of good luck by the islanders, and their gentle melodies sooth and steel the hearts of the fishermen as they venture out across the frigid depths.
===Urban Areas===
Much of Fish Island is simply ice, but a small city housing approximately 4,500 kerbals has built up on the north side of the iceberg. A single runway on western edge has also existed since 2066 to support larger transport aircraft landing in the microstate, which was previously largely redundant due to the island's flat nature.
==Politics ==
===Government ===
Fish Island has only held true independence for a handful of its years as a settlement, after the dissolution of [[Spearka]]. In the immediate aftermath of this, the small communal permanent population continued with life largely unchanged, but eventually the position of Mayor of Fish City was created to fill the directional void. Jeldrif Traskel Kerman, a long term inhabitant of the island was promptly elected. After Zokesian overtures to claim Fish Island once again, he and his small hand picked staff led negotiations for the microstate to join the Republic of Aquaria as a protectorate.
==Demographics==
===Languages===
Fish Island has no indigenous language, and its inhabitants most commonly speak [[Spearka|Spearkan]], [[Zeoul|Zeoulian]], [[Zokesia|Zokesian]], or some mix of the three.
===Education===
Fish Island has an almost nonexistent population of kerbals at a school age. A single primary school exists in Fish City, and further education must be pursued on the Dorvic mainland or [[Spearka]].
===Religion===
Fish Island has no official state faith and its inhabitants live with complete religious freedom.

===Age===
Fish Island has very few inhabitants on either extreme of the age spectrum, with the vast majority of its population lying between the ages of 20 and 50.
==Economy==
===Taxation===
Fish Island has operated under [[Spearka|Spearkan]], [[Aquaria|Aquarian]], and [[Zokesia|Zokesian]] tax schemes throughout its history.
===Transport===
Fish Island is unique in that its 70m high sheer ice cliffs render it completely inaccessible by sea, and as such air travel is the only way on or off the iceberg. To pilots, Fish Island presents unique complications: on one hand, its extreme winds unbroken by any topographic feature to speak of can be exceptionally dangerous - but on the other, effectively the island's entire frozen surface area can function as a runway in an emergency.
===Energy and Infrastructure===
Fish Island has no connection to a national grid, and relies on generators to keep its sparse facilities and houses running. When the Republic of Aquaria began managing the island in 2079, a 5MW micro nuclear reactor was installed. This was expanded upon as Fishenge was constructed, and spare capacity from the defensive complex's various reactors and turbines when it was not in active combat was given to the local grid.

===Trade===
Fish Island's only natural export is fish, which are usually lowered down the cliffsides onto waiting transport ships for collection after being caught. The establishment of PLAID added military equipment and armaments to the list of exports, but this is highly dependent on external resources.
===Science===
Fish Island is the site of one of the world's largest marine biology research centres constructed in 2072, and a frequent hub for those planning expeditions to the south pole.

==History==
Fish Island is believed to have detached from the Southern Ice Sheet 3-6 centuries ago. For the vast majority of kerbal history since this event, Fish Island has been of no relevance, until the invention of aircraft sturdy enough to land on it at which point its strategic importance slightly increased but remained minimal. The first kerbal ever to walk on its surface was [[Spearka|Spearkan]] Golmajin Kerman, who landed his seaplane on the iceberg in the year 1990.

==Notable Events==

===First Fish Island Crisis and Fish War===
[[File:ZokesianTrawler.png|left|thumb|Zokesian-backed fishermen armed trawlers to combat the Aquarian sea life during the Fish War.]]
Fish Island first rose to geopolitical prominence in 2062 when the [[Zokesia|Zokesian Federation]] began a campaign to overthrow the island’s local government which culminated in a full military occupation. In response to the crisis, [[Aquaria]] partnered with [[Elysium|Elysian]] Army troops deployed within the nation on an overseas training exercise to liberate the island. Aquarian involvement was entirely overseen by its secret service [[C140]], which made the baffling and to this day poorly understood decision to exclusively employ various species of marine life trained and equipped with weapons in the opening attack. After a short naval engagement and shore bombardment, the aquatic servicemen overwhelmed and destroyed all Zokesian surface combatants and anti-aircraft emplacements present in the theater. A conventional landing was swiftly judged impossible, but within hours [[Elysium|Elysian]] armour was aerially inserted via imported Pelican transports and defeated the remaining occupiers.
====Aftermath====
Their victory over the invaders was short lived. As both sides geared up for another round of hostilities the ‘Fish War’ would be cut short by the NMC, which employed over 2000 orbital kinetic weapons to completely melt the island ostensibly to prevent further conflict. The intervention marked the first ever significant strategic use of orbital weapons against the surface of [[Kerbin]], a haunting preview of the wanton destruction to be unleashed upon [[Doren]] and the rest of the world in the Shattering and later the Second Continental War.[[File:LTK_Hit.png|thumb|400px|The [[AQN Lambchop T. Kerman (ANV-84)|AQN ''Lambchop T. Kerman'']] is impacted by the first hijacked ICERV 30km off the shore of Fish Island, in the opening shot of a war that would bring [[Aquaria]] to ruin. The crippled ship would sink approximately 2 hours later.]]
[[File:Fishmogus.jpg|thumb|301x301px|Unspeakable shenanigans occurring as Zokesian craft are stationed at Fish Island, date unknown.]]While ultimately rendered null, the wildly successful cooperation between the [[Aquaria|Combined States of Aquaria]] and the [[Elysium|Theocracy of Elysium]] laid the groundwork for the formation of the MNA and its joint military force the MCRN, and was perhaps the finest hour of the two nation’s friendship. [[Zokesia|Zokesia’s]] defeat would be its only military failure for over a century, and helped establish a nascent [[Aquaria]] as a premier regional power and peacekeeping force within Baskay.

===Following decades and joining the Republic of Aquaria===
[[File:Fishplane.jpg|left|thumb|301x301px|A flying fish armed with Hellfire missiles flies a routine patrol over Fish Island, the newly established Fish City teeming in the background, 2084]]
Fish Island would soon refreeze and be resettled by the Spearkan Federation, and enjoyed nearly 20 years of uninterrupted peace before the dissolution of its parent government. After brief fears of further Zokesian expansionist advances, the city-state opted to fully join the newly rechristened Republic of Aquaria.

===Second Fish Island Crisis===
Tensions surrounding the island resurfaced in the winter of 2114, when Zokesia publicly announced that its claim to the iceberg had never been officially rescinded. What followed was months of military build-up and posturing between Federation forces and the Aquarian Navy, though any climax was cut short by the sudden and unexpected bombardment and invasion of the Republic by North Sarconia on the 22nd of January 2115. The attack began with the sinking of Aquaria's flagship the [[AQN Lambchop T. Kerman (ANV-84)|ANV-84 ''Lambchop T. Kerman'']] leading the AQN's task force off the shores of Fish Island before any other more strategic targets. Historians believe this choice was most likely a deliberate attempt to false flag Aquaria into a two front war with Zokesia. This failed, but Aquaria was nevertheless paralysed into inaction over the island by the fear of such an outcome developing, and offered no further resistance when Zokesia seized the opportunity presented to it.

====Operation Cobalt====
[[File:ZokeScreenshot313.png|thumb|Fighters assembled for the Air round of Fish Game, 2158.]]
[[File:OperationCobalt.jpg|thumb|301x301px|Zokesian transports unload on Fish Island, 2115.]]

10 hours after [[Sarconia|Sarconia’s]] declaration of war on [[Aquaria]], the sound of high-pitched jet engines shattered over 50 years of peace on Fish Island. The island's only official runway became home to nearly two hundred Zokeisan aircraft, their bunkers and runouts littering the island from end to end. For days the air controllers of the Zokesian Air Force were straining themselves, coordinating aircraft patterns entering and leaving the tiny island, where pilots had been sweeping the seas, searching for the Aquarian navy in the hopes it may be wiped out before landing at Fish Island. But the Aquarians, suddenly wrestling with invasion from the north, did not set sail for the iceberg. Large sections of the AQN 2nd Fleet would later be detected moving east for the Fortesal straits. The decision was made then to launch Cobalt II once again, with an umbrella of fighters sweeping out the defenders as Galliant II transports delivered troops to the island. Now, the fight was being taken to Fish Island directly, and soon the sky would be blacked out by Zokesian aircraft. Zokesian Galliants landed under minimal small arms fire, which was later discovered to be a single citizen firing his old service rifle into the air. the Fish island airstrip was taken and the troops of 6th SS. ''Braviserstgeboren'' swept through the city, removing any suspected pro-Aquarian citizens and ex-military personnel.
====Aftermath====
With [[Aquaria]] and later [[Zeoul]] falling to a resurgent [[Sarconia]], which does not lay any claim to the iceberg, Fish Island remains under Zokesian control as of 2199.

=== Fish Game ===
Designed as a popular reality show meets combat shakedown event, the Fish Game featured 10 nations main battle tanks fighting a free-for-all to claim the title of champion. The show was a hit success and would run for 5 seasons before the Kolusian Dust Bowl forced the studio to shut its doors.

=== Establishment of PLAID to present day ===
In 2195, the corporation ''Penguin Logistics and Internal Defence'' was founded and gifted Fish Island as it's headquarters.. Massive construction projects began growing across the flat landscape of Fish Island, and workers flocked to the island from the mainland of Zokesia to work in the new factories.

In 2199, the first deliveries of PLAID military equipment left Fish Island, finding their way to nations across the globe.

In 2200, PLAID completed construction of the first parts of the Fishenge Complex- a large fortress, and a set of naval rifles.
