The [[Vanduul]] '''Kingship''' ([[UEE Military]] designation) is the apparent flagships of Vanduul clans. It is a dreadnought, fleet carrier, command and control ship and assault transport combined in a single hull.<ref name="galactapedia">{{Cite RSI|url=https://robertsspaceindustries.com/galactapedia/article/V3qWn9Dlvm-vanduul-kingship|text=Galactapedia: Vanduul Kingship|accessdate=2020-03-26}}</ref> It is the largest Vanduul ship known to [[Humanity]], roughly equivalent to the UEE's [[Indefatigable]] class in tonnage. It is reported to be between 1500–3000 meters long,<ref name="ReferenceA">{{Cite RSI|url=comm-link/spectrum-dispatch/15200-This-Day-In-History-The-First-Step-Back|text=This Day in History: The First Step Back|int=Comm-Link:This Day in History - The First Step Back}}</ref> heavily armored as the same layered system is capable of protecting against an estimated three to four torpedo strikes. Internally, it carries an air wing more impressive than even a [[Bengal|Bengal-class carrier]]: roughly three hundred [[Scythe]] fighters.<ref name="ReferenceB">{{Cite RSI|url=comm-link/transmission/12991-Vanduul-Warship-Analysis|text=Vanduul Warship Analysis|int=Comm-Link:Vanduul Warship Analysis}}</ref>

== History ==

=== Battle of Orion ===
A Kingship is known to have attacked [[Orion (system)|Orion]]. The ship reportedly decimated a military force composed of three destroyers and several frigates in the system who attacked the mammoth vessel. After [[Battle of Orion|these events]], the Kingship remained in Orion for about a year before moving on from the system with its clan.<ref name="ReferenceA"/>

=== Capture of X12 carrier ===
A Vanduul Kingship, also referred to as [[X12]], has been captured by [[UEE]] as it is found dead in space off [[Garron]]. Later analysis suggests that the warship suffered a disastrous engine failure which flooded much of the crew quarters with deadly anti-matter radiation and left the survivors unable to follow the standard Vanduul protocol of self-destruct when threatened with capture. A detachment from the [[8th UEE Marine Division]] boarded the ship and was able to subdue the remaining crew with relative ease. Although no Vanduul survived for interrogation, the ship has provided a wealth of potential information about their culture and habits.<ref name="ReferenceB"/>
