Jake: Nog, listen to me. We're in way over our heads here. Someone told me that ship out there is twice the size of a Galaxy-class starship and three times as strong!
Nog: That's accurate.
Jake: And you really think we can go up against a ship like that?!
Nog: That's accurate.

Picard: Tactical analysis, Mister Worf?
Worf: Fifty two disruptor banks, twenty seven photon torpedo bays, primary and secondary shielding.
Picard: She's a predator...

Kirk: Tell me everything you know about that ship.
Khan: Dreadnought-class. Two times the size, three times the speed. Advanced weaponry. Modified for a minimal crew. Unlike most Federation vessels, it's built solely for combat.

"Imagine a ship newer and more advanced than mine, with more and bigger weapons and almost as large as a Home. That's what we face, combined with the Grik armada. There's no way we can stand against it. Not here, not with what we have."
Captain Reddy, Destroyermen ("Crusade")
In May of nineteen forty-one the war had just begun
The Germans had the biggest ship, they had the biggest guns
The Bismarck was the fastest ship that ever sailed the sea
On her deck were guns as big as steers and shells as big as trees
Out of the cold and foggy night came the British ship, the Hood
And every British seaman, he knew and understood
They had to sink the Bismarck, the terror of the sea
Stop those guns as big as steers and those shells as big as trees
We'll find the German battleship that's makin' such a fuss
We gotta sink the Bismarck cause the world depends on us
Hit the decks a-runnin' boys and spin those guns around
When we find the Bismarck we gotta cut her down

Johnny Horton, Sink the Bismarck!
There was a rumble like thunder in the sky. Luigi turned around. It was the sound of engines, massive engines that dwarfed even the ones on the ship they stood on. A terrifying face broke through the clouds. It was the face of Bowser when he'd undergone his "Giga Bowser" transformation, but it seemed to be the size of a mountain. A gigantic ship was moving through the sky...one that was covered in guns like an urchin with spikes, one that bathed the entire fleet in it's shadow, and seemed to have Bowser's entire castle on it's deck as a superstructure.
Describing Bowser’s flagship, the Koopa Dominance, Fallen Kingdom
Unopposed under crimson skies
Immortalized, over time their legend will rise
And their foes can’t believe their eyes,
Believe their size, as they fall...
And the Dreadnoughts dread nothing at all!

"Are you prepared to fight, comrades?"
"If Lenin could see us now..."
"Can you feel the Soviet might?"
"None shall oppose the Union!"
"Woe onto our hapless foes!"

A design dating to the first explosive expansion of the Domain, this gargantuan mass of armor and all-big-guns was the gauntleted fist that smashed all opposition, spreading hegemony by fear and force over all of spacefaring humanity that was worth conquering.
