The Project 17100, sometimes known as Aribango-class destroyer is a family of guided-missile destroyers (DDGs) in service of the Unifying Navy. The class was conceived in late 1980s as a secondary effort in designing primary capital ship of the resurgent Navy, capable of conducting anti-aircraft warfare, anti-submarine operations, anti-surface combat in sustained actions, ground-strike missions, and long-range surface raiding operations. Design effort included study of Zacapine, Rezese, Redisan, and Elatian capital ships and their surface actions, and involved technical assistance from the Oxidentali nations.

All ships of the class are named after the cities in the Two Basins, including both the Autocracy and Amayana Makgato Federation cities. The lead ship, Aribango, was built in Gallentica Naval Works shipyard in Orun Redisus, while all other ships were built on the Shipbuilding Plant No.113 in the Imo Basin. Seven have been completed so far, with another three to enter service in the next five years, replacing older Project 14460 destroyers in service. It is possible that the production run will be extended into 2030s, assuming no interruptions.
