The fictional titular warship is shown as one of the American Fletcher class destroyers, the most common destroyer class in history, with 175 built. The iconic silhouette of a Fletcher is well known to any students of World War II naval history. And some of the movie was able to be filmed aboard the museum ship USS Kidd, a Fletcher class vessel still maintained in her World War II configuration.The events of the movie are set in February 1942. The first Fletcher class vessels however were not commissioned into service until June 1942.The movie was based on the C. S. Forester novel "The Good Shepherd". In the book, the fictional destroyer USS Keeling is described as being of the less well-known, less iconic, and less numerous (18 commissioned) Mahan class. The Mahans first entered service in 1936, however, so such class membership would have been actually possible. The book was published ten years after World War II's end, rather than 75 years later for the movie, and such ship class details may have been more familiar to a wider section of society back then.
