Description: The Russian Sevastopol class of Battleships, as first built, could have sat most comfortably among German High Seas Fleet. Below the water-line, however, they were a little bit different. Each had an icebreaker bow and twin tandem rudders.
Laid down in 1909, from a German, Blohm-Voss design, the four ships took so long to complete that by the start of the First World War, they lagged some what behind other contemporary warships. The four ships of the class were named Sevastopol [class name ship], Poltava, Petropavlovsk and Gangut.
Text, in English, starts with a short history leading up to the design and construction of the class, a technical description including armour and armaments, modifications in the 1920s and 30s and then a complete history of each ship from construction to the breakers, in the case of the Gangut, a life of nearly forty years.
There are diagrams of the arnour and machinery lay-outs, all the guns including those fitted at later dates and various modification programs, some of which didn't come to fruition.
Three separate double-sided sets of plans in 1/400 scale are suplied of all four ships, again, at various stages of their lives, which would be very handy for anyone wishing to scratch-build one of these ships.
