- ― Hrimfaxi crew member during Operation Long Harpoon
The Hrimfaxi (リムファクシ Rimufakushi) was a Scinfaxi-class nuclear submarine developed by the Union of Yuktobanian Republics during the Cold War. It was utilized and destroyed in the Circum-Pacific War.
History
Creation
Deployment
After the destruction of its lead ship, the Scinfaxi, Yuktobania began to utilize the Hrimfaxi. It was only deployed in Operation Long Harpoon where it fired multiple burst missiles at the Osean ground forces performing a mass invasion of Yuktobanian mainland. Wardog Squadron was sent to the Razgriz Straits to destroy the submarine and protect the ground forces. They performed a sneak attack on the fleet, damaging the Hrimfaxi enough to force it to prevent it from staying below water for too long. The Hrimfaxi defended itself using UCAVs and burst missiles as best as it could, but Wardog eventually destroyed the submarine.[1]
Design
Notably, while the Scinfaxi launched carrier jets, the Hrimfaxi launched UCAVs.[1]
Trivia
- The Hrimfaxi and its sister ship, the Scinfaxi, take their names from Norse mythology, where the Skinfaxi and Hrímfaxi are the horses of Dagr (day) and Nótt (night).
