The '''Reathach-class carrier''' (Aen. ''Modern'') is a two-vessel class of warship produced for the [[Office of the National Army (Faneria)|Fhainnin Army Naval Forces]] in the 1980s. ''Reathach'' and its sister ship, ''Meon'' (Aen. ''Zeitgiest'', loosely). Designed as hybrid cruiser-carriers, the two vessels acted as twin flagships of the Fhainnin navy until the introduction of the X class carrier. The class would serve as an inspiration for the founding of the modern Joint Carrier Development Program between [[Faneria]] and [[Kiravia]], as producing an aviation warship was laid down as a prerequisite for the program to proceed during negotiations in the 1970s.
The '''Reathach-class carrier''' (Aen. ''Modern'') is a two-vessel class of warship produced for the [[Office of the National Army (Faneria)|Fhainnin Army Naval Forces]] in the 1980s. ''Reathach'' and its sister ship, ''Meon'' (Aen. ''Zeitgiest'', loosely). Designed as hybrid cruiser-carriers, the two vessels acted as twin flagships of the Fhainnin navy until the introduction of the [[Penthebhra-class carrier|Penthebhra class]] carriers. The most significant development from the commisioning of the class would be the initiation of a joint shipbuilding program with the [[Kiravian Federacy]] in 1985, formally named the Joint Carrier Development Program. The Federacy, having only reclaimed metropolitan [[Kiravia]] from a dying [[kiravian Union]] in [[Reunification of Kiravia|1984]], had served as the main offshore location for military research and development by the Fhainnin government in a number of areas banned under the [[Treaty of Loughlin]] until the [[Treaty of Normalization of Brotherly National Relations]] in 1967 terminated the nonterritorial conditions of the treaty. ''Meon'' in particular demonstrated native capital shipbuilding capabilities which were a prerequisite to the program, which had been discussed in increasingly serious terms since the 1970s as the possibility of a peaceful de-Socilization of Kiravia became stronger.
