Dreadnought 

Meaning approximatly "fear(s) nothing", the word first came into use as a name for a class of large (sail) ships, dominant during the early 20:th century. The word has often appeared (occationally with slight difference in spelling, e.g. Dreadnaught).

Examples of modernised usage include (different, fictional) classes of ships, especially spacecraft within various sci-fi franchises, Spacemarine Dreadnoughts from GW:s Warhammer 40K franchise (sarcophagus-like warmachines which hold the remains of fallen, near-incapacitated heroes of the Imperium) and a guitar body. The word also commonly appears as a synonym for just about anything "big" or, in some cases, strong, impressive of awe-inspiring.

Dreadneck 

A Dreadneck is NOT a Wigger nor are they hateful. Dreadnecks are similar to Deadnecks (Greatful Dead following Rednecks) except that they're more like Rastas. They smoke herb, and are nice towards all people, One Love. They're Southern Country boys who live by the Golden Rule and are turned Hippie. Their girlfriend is probably a vegetarian but they live for deer season and can hit a 8-point buck from 50-yards.
Aw man, I bet that bluegrass festival was full of white trash and rednecks.

Actually it was great, I took a bunch of mushrooms with a couple dreadnecks and we stayed up all night drinking High Life, square dancing, and skinny dipping, then homeboy busted out his Guitar and played Take It Easy on the back of his F350

Dreadnought KV-2 

A premium KV-2 from World of Tanks Mercenaries, it's literally just the KV-2 but better, being equipped with a 152mm ML-20SM Thermonuclear bomb launcher that sneezes on people harder then the punishments served in the gulags. But because it's Tier 7 it can get Tier 9's but it can still use H.E shells to annoy Tier 9's.
It's gun has the power of a Dreadnought's gun. thus why it's named Dreadnought KV-2
