More information on this topic is available on Wikipedia's Battleship article.

Battleships are heavily armed warships which are typically the most powerful surface vessels to ever exist.

On average, they are 279 meters long and 39.6 meters beam and feature 105-centimeter (roughly 41.3 inches) turrets.

History

The Pacific Federation's 1st Naval Battlegroup utilized battleships, including the top-of-the-line flagship FNS Dejanus, to subjugate the Cascadian capital of Presidia for most of the Cascadian Conflict. The Dejanus' sister ship Jerusalem was later captured by the Cascadian Independence Force and renamed the CIFS Eminent Domain, becoming their naval flagship. As well, a pair of them were docked unarmed at Wai Mami Port in Sawaiiki, being sunk in an air raid. The Federation's remaining battleships in-theater, along with the Eminent Domain itself, were all sunk in the closing battles of the war.

Trivia

• The battleship is an entirely original design; it uses a conventionally shaped hull, but the superstructure resembles an enlarged Zumwalt-class destroyer.
• Interestingly, battleships are often positioned as the flagships of various fleets, a role that is often reserved for aircraft carriers in reality. This is akin to the Ace Combat series where this is sometimes the case.
• Battleships are identified as "Battleship_Radion" in the game files. Whether this is their true class identification is unknown.
