The Brindisi-class was the first class of light cruisers built for the Cacertian Royal Navy in the aftermath of the Divide War and subsequent reevaluation of Cacertian naval doctrine. They were designed specifically as a class of protection cruiser that would work with lighter destroyers to screen fleet elements and perform reconnaissance. By comparison to pervious cruiser designs, the Brindisi-class was considered a major improvement.
During the Siduri War, it was common for the ships of the class to work independently as fleet raiders, many operating out of the Empire’s naval base in Andria and bounding far from port to attack Syaran commerce. The 130mm RN-QFI guns that made up the primary armament of the Brindisi-class were surprisingly effective as both a surface and anti-aircraft weapon; later improved version of the QFI were later implemented across the entire navy both as primary and secondary weapons.
A total of twelve ships were completed, three of which were lost in combat operations during the Siduri War. The remaining nine were later decommission in 1943 and eventually scrapped.
