History
"..."

-... When the first Dreadnought-class battleship was first commissioned, it was by and by far the largest ship in the entire Voshkod Navy. Built to the be the last word in naval combat, the Dreadnought-class battleships were armed and armoured to the teeth.

Each battleship possessed a formidable armament of no less than twelve 306mm naval guns. Specifically meant to sink other ships, the naval guns fired powerful armour piercing or high explosive shells, each capable of splitting a ship in a single shot. Smaller, quicker firing ancillary guns would destroy lesser targets that managed to close the distance, blasting them out of the water before they got the chance to fire their weapons. Thick armour shielded the Dreadnought, making it impervious to all but the most powerful of enemy ordnance.

Not long after its introduction around the start of GVAW, the Dreadnought-class battleship soon demonstrated that it was virtually unsinkable when matched against other warships. Even the mighty Iowa-class and Montana-class battleships, some of the most powerful ships in the Aquilan Navy, were barely a match for the Voshkod Dreadnoughts.

The Dreadnought-class continued to serve with the Voshkod Navy following the GVAW. Their armament would change radically, however, after the successful trial of the Snowstorm and the replacement, the Potemkin rolls in. Chosen as the new platform for the Snowstorm on account of the fact that it was the largest standard ship class in the Voshkod Navy, and the only one capable of handling the mighty Snowstorm. The entire class was converted, stripped of their guns and mounted with scores of Snowstorm missiles. The newly refitted Dreadnought-class Missile Cruisers would soon see action again in Cold War proxy conflicts and later Elysea's Conflict, ready to blaze a new trail of destruction throughout the seas.

Though the legacy of the original Dreadnought lives on when the Voshkod navy, sold unconverted Dreadnoughts to their allies. One of which, is of course, Encantadia, who were needed a battleship that can match the firepower of Cantha's then, at the time, the Skogr-class battleship and later the upgunned and modernized Iowa battleship.
