Back in 4.84, yes. I remember Osirises taking on Nomad Battleships in Omicron Delta, etc. However, I don't believe that happens any more.
You can still witness some cruiser battles (I believe) in systems like Dundee and Leeds, and other battleships involving capital ships. However, no battleship-on-battleship type of thing any more.

not cool, there should be systems where houses fight, like between liberty and rheinland =(

This was done before and it just caused server instability. Not to mention angry traders, and general whinging.

Well given the current state of the wars going on, there seems to be little activity with battleships anyway, most of the combat seems based on guerilla tactics.

Leeds is meant to be a warzone. We need proper battles...

Wars aren't about battleships blasting each other to pieces 24/7. I think it's actually quite good in Leeds/etc with the destroyers attacking the battleship in Dundee, the occasional gunboat appearing past Stokes to be blasted by nearby battleship patrols, etc.
Battleship battles should be rare, and they are. Overdoing pretty fireworks can be a bad thing too.
