The Aciscolo Sgarlata-class was the first class of large-scale purpose-built fleet carriers commissioned for the Cacertian Royal Navy. The class saw service during the Siduri War as Cacerta’s primary carrier warship, participating in every Royal Navy battle that involved carrier aircraft. Utilizing lessons learned from the Victor Sarissita-class, the Aciscolo Sgarlata-class ships proved effective in their role.
