The Huise- or Province-class cruiser was designed by the Royal Shipyards of Isselmere-Nieland for the Royal Isselmere-Nieland Navy, serving from 2003 to 2004. The Huise-class cruisers were the first cruisers in the Royal Navy and, despite the Red Sea fiasco in which an entire fleet was sunk with hypersonic munitions, served well.
