The Hawkwing-class destroyer is a light combat starship from the fictional Honorverse. It is the oldest class of destroyer still in service in the Royal Manticoran Navy as of 4003 AD (On Basilisk Station). Honor Harrington's first hyperspace-capable command was the lead ship of this class. The obsolete vessels will be reclassified as frigates. The lead ship in the class, the HMS Hawkwing, was destroyed by the Battlecruiser PNS Keriben in hyperspace near the Silesian Confederacy.
In the recent Saganami Island Tactical Simulator game, the Hawkwing is actually a member of the Falcon-class. As the game is at least partially written by David Weber, it stands to reason that the Hawkwing-class in fact does not exist.
