The Tasarin-class battleship, known outside Astyria as the Aegatic-class, was a class of dreadnought battleships that was designed by Alukiri and Malle of Arimathea prior to the Great Astyrian War, in which they subsequently served in the navies of several Western Powers including Arimathea and Txekrikar. A near-identical design was also sold to Amalfi's Aquilifer Naval Engineering, which produced them for general export under the name Aegatic as part of the two firms' long-standing exchange programme. Aquilifer later supplied Alukiri and Malle with its Alaia Regia-class battleship, known in Astyria as the Barezh-class.
The class was named for the tasarin, a flower which is traditionally and symbolically linked to Arimathea having been transplanted there from its native Aquitayne during the Ethlorek migrations.
Design
The first sketches of an Arimathean dreadnought were drafted in 1904 after the Parsig Meeting established the admiralty's new dreadnought-building agenda. The grand duke, Josev VI, was loath to invest in a new fleet and had instructed the navy to purchase second-hand ships from foreign powers or continue building older designs. He rejected outright the idea of a modern, Arimathean-designed and built warship. The admirals at the Parsig Meeting therefore resolved not to commission a single new ship until Josev authorised a line of dreadnoughts.
The design that would become the Tasarin was one of six sketches made in February 1905 by the Admiralty Design Office and was identified by the procurement committee as the dreadnought design best suited to Arimathea's revised naval doctrine. The design was redrafted and updated throughout the year and by the time the 1906 budget was debated in the Avikli, in November 1905, it was considered a necessary addition to the country's navy.
