This mod adds a new class of ships to the game: Dreadnoughts.
With 3 times the weaponry of normal Battleships, and enough internal volume to carry ALL fleet support equipment at the same time, these behemoths make for the perfect flagship for any star-nation.
Built with the same technologies and shipyards needed for Battleships, Dreadnoughts are vastly more expensive, only the wealthiest can afford them
More ship classes will be added in future updates (if I get around to making them).
-------
I was disappointed at the lack of ship types and customization in Stellaris, so I decided to add more. This is just a quick little mod, so it uses default Battleship graphics, though scaled up 30%.
Ideas for future updates:
0.2: Battlecruisers - All the firepower of a Battleship, but with the speed (and durability) of a cruiser!
0.3: Destroyer Escort - An ant that can fight among giants! By ripping out most of engines of a destroyer, maybe they'll get enough armor and firepower, and be cheap enough, to actually be useful in a capital ship fight.
0.4: Frigates - The maneuverability of corvettes, but in a platform that can actually carry enough equipment to be useful! Watch out destroyers.
0.5: Balance - I'm sure I could actually balance things once I get feedback and I'm not just eyeballing it.

I uploaded this to the workshop, but for some reason the workshop is stuck as 'hidden', with no button to change it, so I can't release it to the public there. So I'm putting it here.
