The '''''Spitzer'' class''' of {{wp|guided missile destroyer}}s (DDGs) is a [[Cartadanian Navy]] [[Cartadanian Navy#Ships|class of destroyer]] built around the [[Angelico|Prometheus combat system]] and the [[Angelico|ATLAS]] multi-function {{wp|active electronically scanned array}} {{wp|radar}}. The class is named for Admiral Uriah Spitzer, a Cartadanian destroyer officer during the [[Second Great War]]. The vessels were built by [[Cartadania]]n shipbuilder [[Valorica Marine]] between [[Santária]], [[Siena]] at Valorica's [[Santária Yards]] and [[Valorica]], [[Triessa]] at it's [[Valorica Shipbuilding]], with the {{wp|lead ship}} of the class named for Admiral Spitzer himself.
In 2030, the Cartadanian Navy unveiled its strategic blueprint, outlining the integration of the advanced [[Stellara-class destroyer]]s to complement the existing Spitzer-class vessels. Distinguished by a longer profile, augmented displacement, and refined design, the Stellara-class employs a sleeker configuration with a more slender beam and reduced draft. Notably, these new additions incorporate certain shared technological advancements while also serving as the evolutionary step forward from the esteemed Spitzer class. The Spitzer class, rooted in the foundational technologies introduced during the laying of its inaugural ship in 2018, marked an enduring cornerstone that has propelled successive modernizations which have evolved into the now under construction Stellara.
== Development ==
Development of the Spitzer-class destroyers started in 2008 when the Department of the Navy was considering phasing out the {{sclass|César Padrón|destroyer|1}} in favor of a newer, multi-mission destroyer. It primarily came to fruition due to a multitude of factors, including increased tensions between Cartadania and [[Varshan]], mechanical failures on the César Padrón, and increasingly obsolete technology. Originally, the Department of the Navy planned to replace the destroyers with {{wp|cruiser}}s, but the SECDEF urged the Department of the Navy to maintain the destroyer classification with expanded roles. The navy signed a contract with [[Valorica Marine]], a major shipbuilder headquartered in the state of [[Triessa]], and after Trinity Iron Works pulled out of the contract negotiations, Valorica became the sole contractor. The project is developed and provided along with partner corporations, including [[Angelico]] and its other subsidiaries (e.g., [[Allocca]]), energy solutions manufacturers [[Bia S.A.|Bia]] and [[Ganymede S.A.|Ganymede]], defense contractor [[Xira S.A.|Xira]], as well as [[Quicksilver Industries|QSI]]-susidiaries [[O'Shea Corporation]] and [[Shockwave Industrial]]. It has been built alongside the [[Pelaxia]]n Navy's [[Hugo Charpantier-class frigate]].

The Spitzer class of guided missile destroyers (DDGs) is a Cartadanian Navy class of destroyer built around the Prometheus combat system and the ATLAS multi-function active electronically scanned array radar. The class is named for Admiral Uriah Spitzer, a Cartadanian destroyer officer during the Second Great War. The vessels were built by Cartadanian shipbuilder Valorica Marine between Santária, Siena at Valorica's Santária Yards and Valorica, Triessa at it's Valorica Shipbuilding, with the lead ship of the class named for Admiral Spitzer himself.

In 2030, the Cartadanian Navy unveiled its strategic blueprint, outlining the integration of the advanced Stellara-class destroyers to complement the existing Spitzer-class vessels. Distinguished by a longer profile, augmented displacement, and refined design, the Stellara-class employs a sleeker configuration with a more slender beam and reduced draft. Notably, these new additions incorporate certain shared technological advancements while also serving as the evolutionary step forward from the esteemed Spitzer class. The Spitzer class, rooted in the foundational technologies introduced during the laying of its inaugural ship in 2018, marked an enduring cornerstone that has propelled successive modernizations which have evolved into the now under construction Stellara.

Development

Development of the Spitzer-class destroyers started in 2008 when the Department of the Navy was considering phasing out the César Padrón-class destroyer in favor of a newer, multi-mission destroyer. It primarily came to fruition due to a multitude of factors, including increased tensions between Cartadania and Varshan, mechanical failures on the César Padrón, and increasingly obsolete technology. Originally, the Department of the Navy planned to replace the destroyers with cruisers, but the SECDEF urged the Department of the Navy to maintain the destroyer classification with expanded roles. The navy signed a contract with Valorica Marine, a major shipbuilder headquartered in the state of Triessa, and after Trinity Iron Works pulled out of the contract negotiations, Valorica became the sole contractor. The project is developed and provided along with partner corporations, including Angelico and its other subsidiaries (e.g., Allocca), energy solutions manufacturers Bia and Ganymede, defense contractor Xira, as well as QSI-susidiaries O'Shea Corporation and Shockwave Industrial. It has been built alongside the Pelaxian Navy's Hugo Charpantier-class frigate.
