Crossword Genius

A drama about some ships (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

armada

'some ships' is the definition.
(group of ships)

'a drama about' is the wordplay.
'about' is an anagram indicator.
'drama' anagrammed gives 'rmada'.
'a'+'rmada'='ARMADA'

(Other definitions for armada that I've seen before include "A great fleet of warships" , "Large flotilla" , "Old Spanish fleet" , "vessels" , "Fighting unit" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
