Hayes Class Destroyer

UEEFship.gif

The Hayes Class destroyer was an interim design that was designed to replace the Garfish as a fast attack vessel. However the Garfish's utility as a pocket carrier kept that design from being decommissioned. The Hayes Class DD is a fine ship, and is generally recognized as the precursor to the more capable Shimikaze Class Battlecruisers. While earlier models had a integral fold drive, those being built after the Haydonite attack on Space Station Liberty will have to do without. As the US Navy did in WWII, the UEEF must do now, namely, 'build as many ships as fast as possible as cheap as possible.' This is not to say the Hayes Class is flawed or substandard, far from it, it is just that expensive features such as Fold Drives and certain amenities for the crew have been omitted in order to ease and speed production. Like the 'Tin Can's' of the Pacific, the Hayes Class is spartan, and built to do one thing well, to fight.
