In the fictional Gundam Universe, at the end of the Gryps War in UC0088, Char Aznable disappeared, and was presumed dead; however, in UC0093 he re-emerged with a declaration that he was now in command of his own Neo Zeon movement. Included with the movement were several "Musaka class" light cruisers and the "Rewloola" (pronounced "Rail-lu-la"), Char's flagship.

The "Rewloola"-class was Neo-Zeon's answer to the Federation's "Ra Cailum"-class battleships. The ship sported seven twin beam gun turrets and twelve rear thrusters, giving the ship plenty of propulsion. The "Rewloola" also sported MS Hangars — a trait indicative of nearly every Zeon ship since UC0079. As with battleships of its time, "Rewloola" was also equipped with a combat bridge besides a standard bridge.

The "Rewloola" saw heavy action in the movie "Char's Counterattack", first coming under fire while capturing the asteroid base, Fifth Luna, then again at the battle for Axis. The "Rewloola" performed exceptionally well during both conflicts, proving that battleships equipped with MS hangars could still be formidable opponents in the age of the mobile suit.

Only one "Rewloola" class vessel was known to be constructed; since it is not seen past UC0093 it is presumed that the ship was sunk in battle with Londo Bell forces at Axis, however that has never been confirmed.
