Hammurabi
An MCRN Morrigan-class patrol destroyer in Leviathan Wakes, one of the escorts serving with the battleship Donnager in Mars's Jupiter fleet during the first Expanse novel.
The Hammurabi is a Martian warship, one of the vessels serving alongside the battleship Donnager, flagship of the Martian Congressional Republic Navy's Jupiter fleet. She is identified as a Morrigan-class patrol destroyer, part of a new generation of escorts fielded during Mars's fleet modernization, assigned with her sister ships to accompany the Donnager on convoy protection duty in the outer Solar System. Ships like the Hammurabi are the connective tissue of the setting's naval world: the MCRN's professionalism rests on squadrons of such escorts as much as on its great capital ships. Her name stays largely in the background, attached to the fleet whose movements shape the crisis.
