Revenge-class battleship : ウィキペディア英語版 | Revenge-class battleship
The ''Revenge''-class battleships (listed as ''Royal Sovereign'' class in several editions of ''Jane's Fighting Ships'', as with the 1919 and 1931 editions, and sometimes also known as the "R" class) were five battleships of the Royal Navy, ordered as World War I loomed, and launched in 1914–1916. There were originally to have been eight of the class, but two were later redesigned, becoming the s, while the other, which was to have been named HMS ''Resistance'', was cancelled. == Design == The ships of the class were slower and smaller than the preceding s. Despite sometimes being referred to as the "''Royal Sovereign'' class", official documents from World War I clearly state that the class was known as the ''Revenge'' class; the confusion apparently even extended to the Grand Fleet's commander, Admiral of the Fleet Jellicoe, as they are mentioned in both fashions in his voluminous ''The Grand Fleet 1914–1916: Its Creation, Development and Work''---as the ''Revenge'' class in some places as well as the ''Royal Sovereign'' class in others. The ships have also been referred to on occasion as the "R" class.
