Originally constructed under contract with the Tocrowkian Imperial Reich, the Phoenix Class (also known in the Tocrowkian Imperial Reich as the Venator Class) Dreadnaught is the second largest vessel in California's Navy, being slightly more than two-hundred meters longer than its cousin the CNV Imperial Phoenix, and roughly seven-hundred meters smaller than the Vengeful Phoenix Supercapital. Where size is concerned the Phoenix Class is considered an intermediary vessel

The Phoenix Class dreadnaught is the first vessel of its kind in California's navy, and also the second largest vessel in California's Imperial Navy. Dwarfing the nation's third largest vessel the CNV Imperial Phoenix by slightly less than double its length and size these ships were built to deliver one hell of an hit in a short timeframe.

This latest vessel, christened the Vengeful Phoenix Class, California's first Supercapital was approved for construction and on December 15, 2259 construction began and was completed on November 19, 2263 at the Monterey Californian Shipyards at Monterey, California, CSDSF. After sea trials the ship was put into service in the Californian Imperial Navy's Pacific Fleet on July 3, 2264.

Here are the vessels of the Phoenix Class:
