Orion-class battleship : ウィキペディア英語版 | Orion-class battleship
The ''Orion''-class battleships were four super-dreadnought battleships—the first ships of that type—of the Royal Navy. The lead ship, , was launched in 1910. They were the first Royal Navy dreadnoughts to have all their main guns in the centreline; the U.S. Navy's first dreadnoughts, the , had pioneered this advanced feature. The ''Orion''s were quite distinct from the later classes of 13.5-inch gun super-dreadnoughts (the s and s) in that the mainmast was placed behind the fore-funnel. This arrangement was common in early Royal Navy dreadnoughts but created major problems for the gunnery direction team in the spotting top. ==Design and development== Previous British dreadnoughts had been built very much with an eye on cost. By 1909, the escalating Anglo-German naval arms race had released greatly increased resources from the British treasury. These ships were much bigger than the preceding and cost almost £1.9 million each to construct.
