The Type 51B destroyer which is expected to replace the Corkscrew 51A in production from 2122 will be called the Repulse 51B. The class of twenty ships will all have names which begin with R.
The Repulse 51B will be more powerful than the Corkscrew with a "mission wing", a larger fuselage and a flexible mission layout. Production of the Repulse is expected to last for much of the 2120s.
