    H.M.S. "REVENGE"
    Battleship, 'Royal Sovereign' Class
    Five ships of this class were projected under
    the 1913-14 estimates. All were completed
    and commissioned during the Great War, at
    an average cost of ,500,000. The Revenge,
    which was built by Vickers, was launched
    in 1915 and completed in March of the
    following year. The armament consists of
    eight 15-inch and twelve 6-inch guns, eight
    4-inch anti-aircraft guns, an adequate num-
    ber of smaller subsidiary weapons and two
    21-inch torpedo tubes. She has a displace-
    ment of 29,150 tons and a speed of 22 knots.
    Some of her sister ships include aircraft in
    their equipment. Bulges of improved type
    as a protection from under-water attack were
    fitted after the Great War. Their lower free-
    board renders these ships rather wet in heavy
    weather, as compared with the Nelson type.
