Terran Battleship - Collosus class

The colossus was designed as a be-all, end-all to the Terran conflict, the few ships that got launched could not be beaten by military might, only to be taken by mutiny or boarding operations, the remaining ships of the class were either scrapped or destroyed in dock by rebel insurgents. - Union history, book V

The captured ships were returned to the Union with the weapons stripped out, so instead of scrapping them the hulls were donated to the training academies to teach new crew members the life of a ship. - Union history, Book V

"Ah yes, the Collosus, a complete waste of time and credits in my opinion, always seemed to good to be true with the shields and all, probably a good thing I never got to server on one." - Ensign Williams
