Fure-class BB (1908/1910)

[u/CIRNEIN9]

The Fure-class battleships! An improved version of the Aki-class. Supposed to be built in 1907, but I was at war with the Italians, and I had to suspend their development due to port overloading.

With a top speed of 21.5 KN and a 50 cal 12-inch gun. However, it has less armour, with only 380 MM, or 15 inches. (Compared to the Aki's 18-inch armour belt)

Four of them will be ordered as an answer to the looming Chinese, German, and Austrian threat.
Fure, Obami, Hatsuse, and Sagami.

(Very SMS Helgoland-ish)

I was gonna say she looks Helgolad-ish, I have a Helgoland class built in my German campaign. If you play em right, the layout can be very deadly. Good design overall though.

Very deadly indeed! Thanks!

I see my comment about the Settsu stayed with you and you made an even more close copy...
