The Aeneas-class destroyer is a class of multi-role guided missile destroyers of the Aetolian Navy. The first ship of the class started building in 2015 and entered active service in 2019. The class is slated to replace the older Hyleus-class destroyers, and are also the first ships in Aetolian vessels that posses an anti-ballistic misisle capability.
