Comments: The Diqral-class battleship is an aging design still in service with the Zhodani Navy, but is still a capable and useful line-of-battle ship; mounting jump-3, 6-G acceleration and 6 agility with somewhat aging weapons, the Diqral is an effective ship when coupled with other vessels capable of supporting it.
