The Best damn warships out there?
As this thread mentions, what is the best warship in existence? Could be from any sci-fi universe, but explain why it is so damn awesome. Multiple ships are allowed but just give an explanation why you chose it
So here are my picks:
Retribution Class Battleship
Why its my favorite: Standard broadsides are capable of turning a continent into ash with a few salvos in less then a single volley. It's got absurdly high sublight speeds of 75% the speed of light AND it's 7.5 km long!

Badass attitude, and weapons capable of flash - frying entire solar systems from tens of thousands of light - years away, reaction times in picosecond level, able to attack from hyperspace where it is impervious to enemy counterattack, defensive fields strong enough to allow it to fly through a supernova unharmed, trapdoor system to displace any unwanted energy into hyperspace so it cannot be destroyed with conventional weapons, effectors able to overload or suck energy from a target, or reprogram it (whether it's a computer or organic mind) from light-years away and cannot be blocked by anything except another effector, displacers to teleport miniature black holes and collapsed anti-matter bombs into targets, powerful enough to destroy planets with just one (and thousands can be displaced every second), sensors capable of detecting any energy or mass in a radius of dozens of light-years by their hyperspace echo, fought an entire fleet battle against hundreds of ships nearly as powerful and advanced as itself spread over 200 light-years in hyperspace in only 11 microseconds, with a hyperspace sprint speed of over 248 trillion times lightspeed....
and that's actually one of the weakest ships in my favorites list.
The "USM Auriga" was fairly awesome.. but it was no war ship, it just had army people on it.. and some aliens, a clone or 8, and the crew from the betty....

^Sun crusher fits the category of superweapon. It's not actually meant to be a direct combat fighting platform class since its more specialized for a more single and specific role. Its purpose is not meant to offensively combat hostile fleets. But Eclipse class is more acceptable.

Thats merely a point defense system. Its meant to protect the ship from its real purpose of destroying the sun, thus making it more superweapon then warship.

The main purpose of the Suncrusher is to invoke mass destruction on a scale that puts itself above the norm in it's native universe. The general definition of superweapon is an extremely powerful weapon by the standards of its time and its scale. Suncrusher exceeds normal power levels in SW thus making it more superweapon then warship.
