The UNSC Archon (FFG-118) is one of the newer ships of the UNSC Fleet. Only five years out of spacedock, the vessel has yet to prove its mettle.
Technically, the Archon is designated as a "superfrigate" but this title is somewhat misleading. The vessel has the armament of a destroyer, payload capacity of a troop carrier, and size of a frigate.
One of a handful of uparmored Prague-class guided missile frigates, the Archon is a rapidly deployable vessel, one of few ships in the Twenty First Battle Group that is ready to be called into action at any time, and in any place. Its commander, Commander Andrew Medeterano, is an exceptional young officer, who has led his vessel with distinction and efficency. Though it has no Longsword singleships for point defense, the vessel's speed and weaponry allow it to get itself out of dangerous situations quickly.
