The Eclet was a Gayik'Von battleship class that served with distinction from approximately 1731, until 1906 Earth time, when it was phased out. Surplus ships were then either decommissioned and scrapped, or in rare cases refitted and sold to friendly republics within Gayik'Von space. Earthfleet was gifted two of these ships, which they examined in detail, and then used as the foundation for the construction of their Romano class dreadnoughts.
