As this would represent a sixteenth WarShip in service with the Federated Suns at the time, it is likely - but not certain - that the mention of the ''Admiral Corinne Donnings'' in ''Field Manual: Updates'' is an error, and that the ''Admiral Corinne Donnings'' had been mistaken for or substituted for the ''Fox''. That said, in [[BattleCorps#Solaris Broadcasting Co.|New Avalon Defenders Hold Line, Cripple Blake Flagship]] it explains that this WarShip was destroyed on New Avalon while defending it from the WoB instead of the [[Antrim|FSS ''Antrim'']].
