History
The Fox-class corvette Admiral Corinne Donnings was under construction in 3062 and was expected to join the Armed Forces of the Federated Commonwealth in 3065.[1] The eruption of the FedCom Civil War altered these plans, and the FCS Admiral Corinne Donnings ended up serving in the forces loyal to Victor Steiner-Davion. Surviving until the closing stages of the Civil War, the Admiral Corinne Donnings was one of four Foxes within the task force taken to secure New Avalon in 3066. Led by the Avalon-class cruiser FCS Melissa Davion[2] and serving alongside the FCS Intrepid, FCS Kentares and FCS Robinson[3] the Admiral Corinne Donnings found itself facing Loyalist forces which included two Avalon-class cruisers, the FCS Lucien Davion and FCS Alexander Davion,[2] and two Foxes, the FCS Antrim[3] and FCS Murmansk.[2]
With the resulting battle seeing the Intrepid disabled and the Admiral Corinne Donnings destroyed the Kentares maneuvred itself into close proximity with the Alexander Davion and then executed a tactic that shocked both forces - the Kentares activated her K-F Drive, destroying both ships.[3] The Kentares and the Alexander Davion were the last ships to be destroyed in the battle, as the Lucien Davion surrendered after taking heavy damage and the Murmansk executed a jump from a pirate point, vanishing without trace.[2]
