The Warlock class of destroyers were the last destroyer class constructed at TL9 and all surviving vessels of this class have undergone the WESU (Weapons and Electronics Systems Upgrade) to extend their operational lives. This entailed replacing old TL9 weapon systems with more modern TL10 versions and upgrading the sensor and MFD suites to TL10 standard.
