History[edit]
As of 3057, 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 and assigned to First Wolf Guards.[1] This was also the case in 3061.[2]
The Werewolf was the flagship of the armada to liberate Tharkad during the closing days of the FedCom Civil War.
The Werewolf was active throughout the Jihad. On 20 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.[3][4][5]
The Werewolf was destroyed in 3077 at Chara III by a nuclear weapon-equipped Word of Blake SDS.[6] 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.[7] 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,[6] the NCS Perilous Vision.[8]
