Magellan-Class Battleship - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (752 words)
The battleships were decimated during the One Year War, leaving just a handful of the Magellans left for active service.
This refit, known as the Magellan Kai-class battleship (0083 refit), was introduced along with the Salamis-Class 0083 Refit vessels during the U.C. 0083 naval review at Konpei Island, the former Principality of Zeon space fortress known as the Solomon.
In Gundam Sentinel, it was said that a few of the original vintage Magellan-Class Battleships that were not refitted into the 0083 refit, were refitted in a less expensive version known as the Magellan Kai-Class Battleship.
