Retribution

The Retribution-class super dreadnought is the largest capital ship constructed by UEE and multiple ship manufacturers to take part in the Vanduul War. The UEES Retribution is the only known ship of this class that has been built. The ship is envisioned by Admiral Bishop as a vital missing piece of the Navy's ship roster to combat Vanduul Kingships. A single Retribution class vessel was built at the UEE Naval Skydocks on MacArthur and is armed with multiple Behring 130mm “Ship Buster” rail guns.

History
The Retribution was laid down as Project Quadeen before the start of the Vanduul War under strict secrecy. Due to financial problems, the construction of the Ship was delayed. In 2943 the superstructure was almost completed. Something Every Tuesday reported about a new "Kingship killer" in [October] 2946. In 2946 the ship was assigned to the 65th Battle Group and participated in the Battle of Oberon.
