The [[UEES Retribution]] is the only known ship of this class that has been built. The ship is envisioned by [[Ernst Bishop|Admiral Bishop]] as a vital missing piece of the [[UEE Navy|Navy]]'s ship roster to combat [[Vanduul]] [[Kingship]]s.<ref>{{Cite RSI|url=comm-link/transmission/14484-Around-The-Verse-Episode-30|text=Around The Verse 1.30|trx=around-verse-30-including-notes-sneak-peek-gif}}</ref> A single Retribution class vessel was built at the [[UEE Naval Skydocks]] on [[MacArthur]] and is armed with multiple [[Behring]] 130mm "Ship Buster" rail guns.<ref>{{Cite RSI|url=comm-link/transmission/13895-Galactic-Guide-Behring-Applied-Technology|int=Comm-Link:Galactic Guide - Behring Applied Technology|text=Galactic Guide: Behring Applied Technology}}</ref>
