Brytyjski krążownik pancerny z 1901 r. - 8x234 - 17.03.2012

A oto odpowiednik Formidable’a w klasie krążowników pancernych – okręt z 8 działami 234 mm mogącymi strzelać na obie burty, uzupełnionymi przez działa 152 mm w kazamatach. Jest to rozwinięcie poprzedniego typu, co widać po rysunku;-)Głowna różnica to nowocześniejsze ustawienie głównej artylerii. Następny typ być może będzie miał już działa 190 mm w kazamatach:-) Przy okazji powiem, że myślę już o jakiejś niemieckiej odpowiedzi na brytyjski pancernik – prawdopodobnie będzie to okręt z 8 działami 280 mm,uzupełnionymi przez działa 170 mm.
