==Overview==
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 (Ship type)|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.{{Fn|1}}
More than fifty of these ships were built during the [[Angevin Crusade]] in the [[Calixis Sector]] to help ease losses in the [[Sword Class Frigate]] squadrons. Large quantities of these ships can be made with haste by [[Mechanicus]] mobile shipyards and small civilian shipyards.{{Fn|1}}
