List of Aircraft Carriers of the Burgundian Royal Navy (Principia Moderni IV Map Game)

While the Burgundian dominion of Borealia has pioneered early aviation technology, Burgundy itself was rather slow to adopt it, requiring advisors from the dominion to help jumpstart its air arm. Once established however, the advantages offered by aircraft became readily apparent to the Royal Navy, which almost immediately began developing ways to attach aircraft to the fleet. As early as 1912, the Royal Navy incorporated seaplane carriers into its formation. However, not satisfied, Burgundian engineers sought more efficient ways to launch, retrieve, and rearm aircraft. In 1916, the Royal Navy acquired the Collier SMS Jupiter and began the process of refitting it with a full-length flight deck. Renamed SMS Fokker, it was the first aircraft carrier commissioned when it was done so in September of 1918.

Burgundian aircraft carriers are designated “KV”; K being the standard navy code for cruisers, and V for vliegen (“to fly”).
