The Mammut class battle cruiser is a large surface combat ship currently operated by the Dnieguan and Temuair Imperial Navies. A large surface combat ship, Dniegua officially designates the class a Guided Missile Atomic Cruiser (Atommvisk Guiyemyy Rakkvnoyy Kryser), while most refer to the class as a Battlecruiser due to displacement, size, and role. Displacing nearly 30,000 tonnes at full load, the Mammut is the largest sea-going surface combatant in current service that is not an Amphibious Assault Ship or Aircraft carrier. Presently, Dniegua operates 5 ships, with one laided up, while three ships were constructed for Temuair between 1996 and 2008, all of which are in service.
