The Austringer-class, or D-60 class, is a class of three air warfare (AWD) destroyers built for the Kivuian Navy. Although the designation "Air Warfare Destroyer" is used to describe ships dedicated to the defense of a naval force (plus assets ashore) from aircraft and missile attack, the Austringer-class destroyers are expected to also operate in anti-surface, anti-submarine, and naval gunfire support roles.
