An Admiral-class identity for Type 83

Should there be an HMS Cunningham?

Yes in principle; Type 83 could become an Admiral class, though the actual name cannot be predicted.

Cunningham is presented as a strong candidate for commemoration in a future warship name. One proposal would make the Type 83 air-warfare ships an Admiral class. That scheme could honour several senior naval leaders while giving the class a coherent identity. It remains a preference rather than a forecast of what the Royal Navy will adopt.
