Behind the scenes
Historically a Dreadnought was a type of battleship with heavy armour and armaments. The name comes from the first ever dreadnought named HMS Dreadnought which was launched in 1906. The dreadnought type-vessel was superseded by new Battleship and Battlecruiser designs after world war 1.
