QNS Flecha

QNS Flecha, nicknamed the Red Robber of the Seas, was a wooden-hulled, three-masted sailing frigate of the United States of Quentin Navy, made in the Protectorates of Allia and gifted to Joshoe Stevenson, the main leader of the Quentinian Navy during the Quentinian War for Independence, in 1822, making it the first ship officially commissioned by the USQN. The ship also holds the record for most confirmed ships sunk or captured in the Quentinian Navy.

The name came from the coastal town in which it was built, Flecha, Southern Allia, and was not changed once it entered Quentinian service, aside from the prefix change from "SS" to "QNS" (The ship was never commissioned into the Allian Navy). In the town of Flecha, the ship was designed by Paul Oralloaus, and was designed mainly for raids along the Megatridimensional coast. As a result, the ship was lighter and faster than many other frigates, but was able to retain durability and armament with several unique design features, including steel reinforcement, creative weaponry spaces, and its fearsome steel ram.

After the transferal, the Flecha took the city of Boston, Maxx Area as its home port, and soon began service in the war under the command of Joshoe Stevenson. During the War for Independence it conducted 3 separate raids on Megatridimensional assets, starting with a raid on the city of D'vylia in 1823, a raid on shipping in the area of Veruca Salt in 1826, and even direct raids on Iudicium and Veruca Salt itself from 1828-1830, greatly impacting the economics of the young MTO and influencing its decision for peace.
