The Helsinki class ortillery ships are part of Bryn Shander's Year 00 Rearmament Plan, and were designed to replace the old and far less capable Trebuchet class ortillery ships. The Helsinki class is heavily based on the Trondheim class destroyer, but has more conventional firepower and point defense guns to balance its much larger size.
Like the Trebuchet class before it, Helsinki's primary weapon is a large coilgun. Unlike Trebuchet, Helsinki is equipped with two full sized Mjolnir guns that are capable of planting a 3048mm*30480mm iridium rod into a planetary target at velocities from 30km/s to 60km/s and upwards. Though classified as an ortillery ship, Helsinki is just as capable of engaging warships as with the ground-based Mjolnir guns. In an anti-starship role, the Mjolnir guns increase the shot velocity to significant fractions of the speed of light.
