The Battleship Strausberg was initially scheduled for launch in 814 A.S., but due to a series of explosions caused by the Unioners at the Oder Shipyard, was not launched until 815 A.S. Upon its commission it was immediately stationed outside Bonn Station in response to growing concerns Interspace Commerce's (IC) activities. Persistent intelligence reports alleged that IC was covertly supplying the Red Hessians and Unioners.

When these reports were finally confirmed by undercover RFP operations in 818 A.S., Strausberg enforced a quarantine of the station. Between the arrest of several high profile executives (later released on legal technicalities) and the RFP's seizure of the station, IC was effectively evicted from Rheinland and ceased all operations in the House. Strausberg remained in New Berlin after that, to provide Rheinland Military patrols with a base of operations in the capitol system.

With the Hessians of Dresden cutting a brutal swath through the mined-out system, returning veterans of the Liberty-Rheinland War were immediately re-tasked to New Berlin's Southern Front. In 823 A.S. Strausberg served behind Altenburg as a reserve base of operations, keeping a close eye on the nearby Saarfeld in particular.

With the advent of the Sigma War against Kusari, logistical operational needs dictated the increase in strategic importance and security of the supply chain of fuel that feeds the Rheinland Military hardware. In an effort to guarantee, not only an upgrade in the area security but also a veteran force capable of dealing with threats efficiently, the Strausberg and its supporting forces were slated as first pick to be deployed outside of Wuppertal Refinery. The Strausberg's new objective is to ensure that the source of Rheinland’s Thorium MOX, and Cologne system itself, are safe from any threats, foreign or domestic.

Following a short-lived guard duty over Saigon that was cut short by the end of the Kusari-Rheinland war, the Strausberg has been slow to withdraw in full from the Sigmas. Institutional alarm over the support shown by the ALG company to the IMG and the Red Hessians during the battle of Aland Shipyard, have burned distrust into the Strausberg’s crew. An unusually long refuelling stint near ALG’s Wichter Station has given the Strausberg the opportunity to monitor traffic coming in and out of the clandestine shipyard, although exactly what the Strausberg is searching for remains wildly unknown.
