The Megaruda has no blindspots! Obliterate them!
—Grand Chief Commissioner Goran “Thunderclap” Dagam[1]
The Megaruda (MEGARUDA, Megaruda)[5] was a Medarusa-class Heavy Annihilation Battleship that served the Gatlantis Empire. Megaruda served as the personal flagship of Grand Chief Commissioner Goran "Thunder" Dagam as he led the Gubata Expedition Force on a search for the Celestial Ark, Shambleau.
History[]
in August 2199,[4] Megaruda completely destroyed the remnants of the Zoellik faction before encountering the United Nations battleship Yamato during the Battle of Kappadokia. Megaruda's Flame Strike Gun fire was deflected by the battleship's wave motion shield, eventually allowing Yamato to escape. However, the Megaruda and the expeditionary force later caught up with the Yamato and a Garmillas carrier group at Shambleau. During the ensuing battle, the Earth and Garmillas forces were able to predict the appearance of the Flame Strike Gun's weapon fire, rendering it useless and forcing Megaruda into a final direct confrontation with Yamato that ended in its destruction.[1]
