Line 78:
Benito Ares, expressing to his Royal Cabinet his reluctance to have his son harmed, attempted to negotiate with Prince Astolfo in person at Armada Porto Francisco. The prince saw the King's arrival in the ARC ''Gracia de Régne'' as a threat, and so boarded the ''Rége Felipé'' class ''Hernando de Numia'' in order to respond from a similar position of force. Reports of the negotiations via radio vary on some details, but most agree that the Prince, becoming increasingly desperate and unhinged, threatened a missile strike from the frigate on the civilian portion of the port. This ultimately led to the infamous "Battle of Porto Francisco" in which the ''Hernando de Numia'' was destroyed by the larger cruiser, gaining the ''Gracia'' the nickname 'The Bloody Lady.' After the prince's supporters were dealt with, all naval squadrons that had supported him had their ships stripped from the Roll of Ships and interred in drydock. The crew's broken oaths of service had, in the view of the General Staff, stained these vessels irrevocably, and they would not be allowed back into service unless a situation would arrive where their honor could be restored.
In late 2021, the Armada sold off its landing craft to [[Älemsi Negdel]] and several private buyers. This coincided with the closure of the Office of Amphibious Operations due to studies finding its budget to be the most wasteful of all Defense Force departments. Notably the OAO, while functional and full-staffed, had no strategic place in Corric naval doctrine due to its small size, few blue-water vessels, and the Corric focus on defense rather than global operational reach. The funds gained from the sale of the ships were put towards modernizing several existing vessels as well as purchasing new fighter jets for the Royal Corric Air Cavalry. The personnel formerly part of the OAO were assigned to marine detachments, shore patrol, and strategic think tanks to use their expertise in amphibious operations to devise tactics against them.
