The fleet's large ship count is concentrated in capital ships and light cruisers, with relatively few destroyers. Earlier in the campaign, construction stopped below battlecruiser size and produced an almost entirely battlecruiser force. Roughly a dozen of those ships once met two enemy battleships and destroyed them at range. By this stage, the capital-ship core has acquired a much larger light-cruiser arm rather than a proportionate destroyer force. The comparison shows how a successful tactical preference can shape an unusual force structure over time.

How an all-battlecruiser phase shaped the later fleet
An earlier almost all-battlecruiser force has evolved into roughly forty battlecruisers, nearly forty battleships, and a large light-cruiser arm.
