==History==
The '''Exeter-class destroyer''' was the primary Terran Confederation 'battleship' of the [[Vega Campaign]], replacing the larger warships of the previous era. Exeters served in major sieges and amphibious assaults. They also serve as armored transports for dignitaries. The [[TCS Perez de Cuellar]] and [[TCS U Thant]] ferried diplomats to [[Firekka]]. The [[TCS Tiger's Claw]]'s battle group Delta included an Exeter.
