A Dominion battleship is a large warship built by the Dominion.

Specifications

A Dominion battleship is approximately twice the size of a Federation Galaxy-class starship, making roughly 1200m in length. It is also approximately three times as powerful as the Galaxy-class, making it one of the most formidable warships ever seen in Star Trek.[1]

The ship's armament includes phased polaron beams and torpedoes of an unspecified design.

Achilles' Heel?

According to a Federaton probe, the battleship's antimatter storage tanks are held in place by braces made of "viterium", a material that decomposes when exposed to "delta radiation". The USS Valiant attempted to exploit this weakness and destroy a Dominion battleship, but their improvised "delta radiation" torpedo had no effect.[2]
