The heavy warship designated the 'Mantis' by Starfleet is the Dominion's primary battleship. Considerably larger even than a Galaxy-class starship, the Mantis' abilities in combat match its size - it is a fearsome and devastating opponent on the battlefield, and leaves naught but destruction in its wake.

Characteristic of a Jem'Hadar warship, the Mantis carries an obscene amount of firepower, even for a ships its size. Bristling with phased polaron beam emitters, pulse cannons and torpedo launchers, the Mantis is capable of overwhelming most enemies through simple brute force, releasing devastating volleys that make wreckage of lesser vessels. Precise targeting and specially adapted torpedoes can even be used to cripple enemy ships, rendering them helpless before another onslaught from the Jem'Hadar.

Also characteristic of Jem'Hadar warships, the Mantis moves in combat with a speed and grace that seems completely unnatural for a ship of its mass. The Mantis accelerates into battle alongside the Dominion's attack ships and cruisers, keeping pace with ships only a fraction its size.

No matter what, the Mantis is not to be underestimated. With these battleships forming the core of their fleet, the Dominion are a nigh unstoppable force.
