Dreadnought
Dreadnought is the end of the colored-key chain, a late high-tier payoff stop where Black Key turns into the black vault run.
Dreadnought Key is a separate Storm Dive endgame key, so it only matters when your run can still survive the ship and the extraction after it.
Dreadnought Key is its own endgame gamble, not one more colored-chain step. It sits inside the Dreadnought and only matters in runs that are already deep into Storm Dive pressure. If your crew cannot clear the ship, hold the key, and still leave alive, taking it just makes the loss more expensive.
Dreadnought Key is found in a loot room inside the Dreadnought and only appears in Storm Dive. It is a separate ship objective, not part of the normal Green-to-Black handoff.

No. It belongs to the ship endgame and not to the normal Green-to-Black chain step.
