by Alex Palvi
There was a brief ceremony at the North Station Naval Shipyard in Troyes, Cenefort today as Minister of War Nancy Buchanan and Minister of the Navy Ardashir Javed gathered to celebrate the completion of the LNS Valiant, first frigate of the new Peacemaker-class of frigates. The Peacemaker-class, announced in 2013, has been repeatedly delayed by budget constraints as well as design issues. The Valiant, modeled after the French La Fayette-class frigates, is designed for long-term operations in duties such as escorting convoys and humanitarian missions. It is also designed to operate in hostile areas with little support.
