History
As at 3061 the McKenna-class battleship Werewolf was a WarShip within the Clan Wolf-in-Exile touman and was serving as the CWS Werewolf, flagship of the Wolf-in-Exile fleet.[1]
The Werewolf was active throughout the Jihad until her destruction. On the 20th of March 3068, the Werewolf escorted a rescue mission to Outreach, where the vessel held off two Word of Blake WarShips, an Essex-class destroyer and a Black Lion-class battlecruiser while the task force evacuated numerous civilians and members of Wolf's Dragoons.[2][3][4]
The Werewolf was destroyed in 3077 at Chara III by a nuclear weapon-equipped Word of Blake SDS.[5] Wolf-in-Exile forces made up the bulk of the allied coalition forces attempting to liberate Chara as a part of Operation SCOUR, but the allies were unaware of the presence of the SDS;[6] as a result, not only was the Werewolf destroyed, but so was the Mjolnir-class Lyran Alliance battleship LAS Fylgia and a Carrack-class transport from Clan Nova Cat,[5] the NCS Perilous Vision.[7]
