battleship

Austrian battleship plans showed studies on battleship and battlecruisers after Ersatz Monarch class, in 1915-1918. Most of these plans , 5 series of 6, use 38cm or 42cm guns. Reference can be find in KuK Late WWI Capital Ship Designs article by Erwin Sieche. As for 35cm guns used on Ersatz...

I'm attaching the two most well known Popular Mechanics warships published in WWII, the 'Battleship of the Future' dates from the September 1940 issue and the 'Battleship-Carrier' from the February 1943 issue. Were there any other speculative warship designs published in that magazine during...

Hi, I'm hoping some of you guys help me find more information on the interwar British 16A design, thanks

The harbour/port is dredged/demined and Giulio Cesare/Novorossiysk is not sunk. What do the Soviet union do with her?

Was the Royal Navy interested in any way in that project mentioned in newspaper articles like https://www.newspapers.com/image/814693056/? And apologies if that topic has already been looked into.

(this ships is from the same AU as Lepanto-class missile battleships) The full description is on my Live Journal, on Russian. The Suez crisis of 1956 became a moment of truth for the Royal Navy. It was impossible to deny anymore, that Great Britain is lagging dangerously behind both United...

Ight so I'll keep this quick, but I was scrolling on navweaps.com and founds something very interesting. Apparently, there was a french 45 CM gun designed in the 1920's. Now, perhaps that may not sound correct but what really made me curious was the article itself. It discussed plans for a...

This thread was long overdue, actually way long overdue. I don't know why didn't I posted these until now. So here it is, the capital ship projects of the Kaiserliche und Königliche Kriegsmarine aka the KuK Kriegsmarine or the Austro-Hungarian Navy Some designs were already posted here...

I modified an Iowa battlecarrier plan to try to make it more realistic. In particular, the elevator is moved to free up the skijump ramp and the deck is lengthened in a Kiev-class style.

Hello all. Today I was doing some research into the AGS's LRLAP shells, trying to confirm a hunch I have that the original unit price was drastically lower than the stated $800,000-$1,000,000. I sort of confirmed that, as well as finding information saying the AGS was supposed to fire other...

Perhaps some of you still remember the article in stefsep's blog, where he mentioned a weird Italian battleship design: https://stefsap.wordpress.com/2017/09/27/ferrettis-10381-in-quintuples-battleship-design/ I just found out the original paper, published in 1916, and maybe written in 1915...

During the War of the Triple Alliance (1865-1870) the Argentine navy consisted of a few packet steamers armed with a couple of small-bore muzzle-loaders. The leading naval and military power in the region was Brazil. After the war, Argentina and Brazil sought to establish hegemony over defeated...

In UK we know Lion after KGV In USA we know Montana after Iowa In French and German we know Alsace and H class In Japan we know super Yamato and a150 series And how about Italian battleship after Littorio class?

Hi everyone, I have roughly translated and typeset this chart from the phenomenal book "Линейные корабли типа Советский Союз-Галея Принт (2006)" (Battleships of the Soviet Union). I am hoping to translate the full section on Pr. 24 at some point, but the (searchable!) PDF is available at this...

A period ago I found in J. Anten's 'Navalisme Nekt Onderzeeboot' mention of a postwar Dutch Battlecruiser; armed with 38 cms cannons. Now that I look at it again it also mentions guided weapons which I seem to have forgotten because it didn't seem tangible. But as of yesterday evening, I came...

The Triang company produced a range of waterline model ships in 1/200 scale in the early 1960s and briefly again in the 1970s. Star of the Royal Navy models in the range was HMS Vanguard. Rather like Vanguard there were also models of the other recently scrapped big ships, the cruisers HMS...
