The Phoenix class Dreadnaught was originally constructed under contract for the Tocrowkian Imperial Reich. Known for its sheer size, the Phoenix class (also known as the Venator class in Tocrowkia) 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 these ships were built to deliver one hell of a hit in a short timeframe. Originally the Californian Imperial Navy and the Naval Design Bureau had no intention of wishing to produce a model for the use of the CIN, however after seeing its performance during its sea trials, field testing and exercises they decided to keep the designs while letting the Tocrowkian Reich use them to build their own vessels as the Venator class, and set to build the first Phoenix class Dreadnaught.
This latest vessel, christened the Phoenix Class, California's third Dreadnaught was approved for construction and on April 19, 2261 construction began and was completed on May 7, 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 June 21, 2263.
Here are the vessels of the Phoenix Class:
