− The DCS '''''Benjamin''''' was the second-of-class [[WarShip]] of the ''[[Samarkand Block I (WarShip class)|Samarkand]]''-class carrier, launched between [[2579]] and [[2581]]; in 2581 the ''Benjamin'' joined her sister ship and first-of-class vessel the [[Samarkand (Individual Samarkand-class WarShip)|DCS ''Samarkand'']] on deployment against the [[Outworlds Alliance]] military during the [[Reunification War]].<ref name="TRO:3075p216">''Technical Readout: 3075'', p. 216: "Samarkand (Carrier)"</ref> + The '''DCS ''Benjamin''''' was the second-of-class [[WarShip]] of the ''[[Samarkand Block I (WarShip class)|Samarkand]]''-class carrier, launched between [[2579]] and [[2581]]; in 2581 the ''Benjamin'' joined her sister ship and first-of-class vessel the [[Samarkand (Individual Samarkand-class WarShip)|DCS ''Samarkand'']] on deployment against the [[Outworlds Alliance]] military during the [[Reunification War]].<ref name="TRO:3075p216">''Technical Readout: 3075'', p. 216, "Samarkand (Carrier)"</ref>
