Esperanzan fleet
The Esperanzan Navy is greatly hampered by its relatively low level of technology as compared to the rest of the Islands, however its vast numerical advantage still makes it a very dangerous opponent. The recent coup does not seem to have resulted in any detrimental effects as far as the Navy is concerned.
The reader's attention must be drawn to two particularly interesting designs, firstly, the 99998 ton Fleet Courier design. Apparently this designation has been attributed to a spelling mistake by the Thatcher, when the original design was drafted, the officer who pointed out this error is now serving in a penal battalion of the jump troops. Secondly, the much rumoured Troop class which may possibly signify the quantum leap in technology that the remainder of the Islands has feared for so long.
The Esperanzan Navy consists of 5 fleets and The Home Fleet, each of which is sub-divided into The Right Wing, The Left Wing, and The Centre. The exact allocation of ships to each fleet is somewhat unclear, with the exception of The Home Fleet which it would appear has most of the older vessels allocated to it.
