HMS Nelson (28) : ウィキペディア英語版 | HMS Nelson (28)
HMS ''Nelson'' (pennant number 28) was one of two s built for the Royal Navy between the two World Wars. She was named in honour of Horatio Nelson, 1st Viscount Nelson the victor at the Battle of Trafalgar. The ''Nelsons'' were unique in British battleship construction, being the only ships to carry a main armament of 16-inch (406 mm) guns, and the only ones to carry all the main armament forward of the superstructure. These were a result of the limitations of the Washington Naval Treaty. Commissioned in 1930, ''Nelson'' served extensively in the Atlantic, Mediterranean, and Indian oceans during World War II. She was decommissioned soon after the end of the war and scrapped in 1949. She was nicknamed "Nels-ol" from her outline which resembled RN oilers. ==Design==
HMS ''Nelson'' (as was her sister, ''Rodney'') was essentially a cut-down version of the G3 battlecruiser cancelled under the constraints of the 1922 Washington Naval Treaty. The design was to carry a main armament of guns to match the firepower of the American and Japanese es in a ship displacing no more than 35,000 tons. The main battery was mounted in three turrets, all placed forward, and speed was reduced and maximum armour was limited to vital areas, to meet the tonnage limit.
