St. Vincent

In November 1920, the further development of the battlecruiser project was presented—project I3. It fundamentally differed from its predecessors: The main armament was concentrated at the bow of the ship, and the propulsion unit was moved to the stern. This allowed the magazines to be placed in the widest part. The ship was faster than her predecessors; however, the displacement and size of the ship didn't suit the Admiralty, so the project was sent back to the drawing board.
