==Overview:==
Among the earliest of warships to see development, the Bonaventure-class
corvettes were exceptionally agile and possessed unrivalled sensor suites...
by the standards of the early 24th century.
Reserved for reconnaissence and picket duties by the HAF, the surviving
Bonaventures were replaced by the Vincent-class in 2432 and mostly donated to
the Member State navies during the Reunification Wars. The hulls to survive
that war were either uncached by Amaris to be destroyed by the SLDF or fell
prey to the Succession Wars.
The underarmed Bonaventure seemed to be lost forever... until Clan Jade Falcon
decided they needed something faster than their lumbering Aegis-class cruisers
to handle Spheroid raiding dropships.
==Capabilities:==
The new Bonaventure-class was barely modified from its ancient designs by the
Jade Falcons. No effort was made to upgrade its technologies since this would
have delayed construction and the ancient Hegemony equipment was readily
available and more modern equivalents were needed to rebuld the frontline
touman.
Capable of 3.0g acceleration, the Bonaventure can match the manuvers of most
troop carrying dropship and severely outgunned the assault dropships available
at the time.
With no expectation of bidding the Bonaventure into battles against hostile
warships, the Falcons stripped the design of its only capital weapons (two
naval lasers) and increased the secondary armament by a factor of three - and
then added more turrets anywhere they could fit the control mechanisms. The
result was a fairly effective anti-fighter suite, offering a secondary role of
convoy escort for the Bonaventure, and a more than adequate level of firepower
when compared to most spheroid dropships.
==Deployment==
The new heyday of the Bonaventure-class lasted from 3052, when the first ships
arrived in the Inner Sphere escorting supply convoys post-Tukkayid, until 3056
when they first met the Inner Sphere's new warship. Fourteen of the class were
built by Clan Jade Falcon, with two bid for and taken by Clan Smoke Jaguar.
Production halted after the Refusal War as Khan Marthe Pryde rationalised
Falcon production priorities. After reaping an impressive toll against the
Inner Sphere's dropships and fighters for seven years, the Bonaventure-class
once again entered extinction when CSJS Spiteful was destroyed by FCS Intrepid
over Richmond.
