Sofokli (Lakkathan: Софокли /Kivisian: Sofokli ) is the lead ship of the Sofokli-class of missile cruisers in the Lakkatho-Kivisian Navy.
History
Sofokli was originally ordered for the Kivisian navy under the name of "Boghdanets" (after Kivision general Joro Boghdanets), but it was relocated to the Lakkathan Navy before it was laid down in the port of Sagrub. After she was launched she stayed in the port of Nante as a propaganda museum ship recruiting more personel for the Lakkathan navy. In 12th May 1986 she was commissioned in the East Lakkathan Sea Fleet as a convoy esscort vessal until 1991 when she was set as the flag ship of the East Lakkathan Sea Fleet, and put to guard neer the city of Navik to deteer Sivuk Rebel attacks, and eventually helped in the reconquest of the lakkathan north-west. In 2000 she was send back to Nante to recruit more people for the navy as a propaganda museum ship. In 2006 she was refited with the new MA-M06 Naval Gun and Osa-M06 SR SAM. Currently the ship is in the port of Navik, still the flag ship of the East Lakkathan Sea Fleet, but used as a museum. She is fully operational but due to no conflict she stays in the port for two weeks at a time, occasionally going out to esscort ships or train other ships.
