The United Force began in 1910 and entered service in December 1912. It is the world's first fearless ship with a triple-barreled main gun. The turret and main gun are from the well-known Skoda Arsenal, which is equipped with a 305 mm triple main gun and has a range of 20 km. The secondary gun is also a 150mm gun produced by Skoda, which is installed in the shell deck of the ship's cabin.

The United Force used a flat deck design that was rare at the time, with a thick hull, a main engine power of 27,000 horsepower, and a speed of about 20.4 knots.

During the First World War, due to the geographical constraints of the Adriatic Sea where the Austro-Hungarian estuary was located, the United Force could only be stationed at the port. On November 1, 1918, the United Force was sunk by a bomb placed by an Italian frogman in the port.
