The '''Claymore Class Corvette''' is a specialist escort craft; as are all [[Escort|Corvettes]]. Corvettes in general are a bit smaller and less powerful than [[Frigate]]s, but are better equipped than some other ships, such as light Raider vessels. The Claymore is seen as a standard Corvette. It is rugged and uses a simplistic design which allows easy repairs; making the Claymore an extremely practical vessel to manufacture during wartime.¹
