The DCN Saint-Arberoue is a Ailleurs-class frigate in service with the Allieuan navy. Her first task is protecting capital ships, civilian ships, and Allieuan airspace from supersonic missile attacks; her complement of medium-range anti-air missiles allows her to support the defences of another ship under attack and avoid their saturation. She is also capable of monitoring and controlling operations carried out from the sea by friendly aircraft. The ship, like all in its class, was built in Meridith, Avergnon.
