Overview
The Vendetta Class Super Dreadnaught is the first vessel of its kind, and also the largest vessel in California's Imperial Navy. Dwarfing the nation's second largest vessel the CIS Vengeful Phoenix by 666 ft (203 m) these ships were built to deliver one hell of a hit in a short timeframe.
This latest vessel, christened the Vendetta Class, California's largest Super Dreadnaught class, was approved for construction and on December 15, 2259 construction began. Construction was completed on November 19, 2272 at the United Naval Shipyards of California at Long Beach, California, Californian Empire. After sea trials, the ship was put into service in the Californian Imperial Navy's Pacific Fleet on July 3, 2273.
