Dreadnought

At the turn of the century, the idea to substitute the classic squadron battleship with a battleship of a new class came about. V. Cuniberti described the ideal ship for the British Navy, with 305 mm guns. In 1902, the concept of a ship armed with only large-caliber guns was developed. Project H with five twin-gun main turrets served as the new basis. HMS Dreadnought heralded the beginning of a new era in naval history. She was the flagship of the Home Fleet between 1907 and 1912 and the 4th Battleship Squadron between 1912 and 1916. In 1915, the ship managed to ram and sink a U-29 submarine.
