Right then, that's a page for every ship uploaded. Except that just when I thought I was finished I found another two (maybee three) classes of German Pre-Dreadnoughts to add. I might might end up adding them in the new year now.

After that it's on to the task of writing a little bit about each ship. Then going back over them all and writing each page in detail. It's a long project, but I'm fairly pleased with the progress so far.

Thank you NigeVids.

Tsukuba, Ikoma, Ibuki & Kurama are unusual in being 12" gunned cruisers, making them some sort of pre-dreadnought battle-cruiser. I'll add them as soon as I get some time.

Hawaii has a mention on the Battleships Not Completed page.

Sorry I hadnt realised that the Battleships That Never Were page existed.

Unfortunately these ships never got to exist either
Greek - Salamis BB 8x14 - US sold guns to UK for monitors. Being built in Germany. Interesting story.
Russia - Borodino BC's 12x14" of 1917 - all never completed due to revolution.

There are many, many other designs and partially constructed ships not included on that page yet. It needs a lot of work doing to it...
