The Osmanthus class, alternatively the Syringa class, is a class of fast battleships ordered by the Royal Illuverendian Navy in early 2050. It is the first class of ships created for the New Generation Fast Battleships program, and a general improvement of the preceding fast battleship class, that being the Mikaella Akamatsu class.
Designed exclusively by Neverendian naval architects, the class was the first to have approved production, on January 2049, slated alongside with its similarly Neverendian-designed Hestia class. To capitalise on its pride as a Neverendian warship, the Alliance of Illuverendian Shipyards contracted its three principal Havel River shipyards to the Navy for the construction of the four fast battleships of the class.
Four ships were authorised as enshrined in the standards of the program, namely: Osmanthus, Jasmine, Forsythia, and Syringa. The names of the class are derived from the flowers of the Oleaceae family.
