Description: The Diligence-class destroyer was a class of destroyers in service with the UNSC Navy.
The Colonial Military Administration originally used this class of ships as peacekeeping vessels. They were obsolete before the Human-Covenant war began in 2525, but were pulled from storage and retrofitted for action against the Covenant. This retrofitting would lead the to the ships being reclassified as destroyers.
One Diligence-class ship, UNSC Kronstadt, led a successful assault on the planet Heian
