The Monarchismus class is a class of 17 nuclear-powered aircraft carriers in service with the West Heldervinian National Navy Fleet. The lead ship of the class, the NNF Monarchismus, is so named after the form of government that was utilized by Heldervin. A total of 38 ships were initially ordered, though 15 were cancelled prior to construction whilst six were halted midway in construction to be scrapped; the remains of these vessels were used to build the other 17. Four vessels were sunk, while an additional 3 are currently retired; 2 of these three, namely the NNF Classis and Navis, were converted into museum ships.
