Sentinel-class cruiser

The ''Sentinel''-class cruiser was a pair of scout cruisers built for the Royal Navy in the first decade of the 20th century. Both ships participated in World War I and were scrapped shortly after its end.
==Background and design==
In 1901–02, the Admiralty developed scout cruisers to work with destroyer flotillas, leading their torpedo attacks and backing them up when attacked by other destroyers. In May 1902, it requested tenders for a design that was capable of , a protective deck, a range of and an armament of six quick-firing (QF) 12-pounder 18 cwt guns, eight QF 3-pounder (47 mm) guns and two 18-inch (450 mm) torpedo tubes. It accepted four of the submissions and ordered one ship from each builder in the 1902–03 Naval Programme and a repeat in the following year's programme.〔Friedman 2009, pp. 99–101〕
The two ships from Vickers became the ''Sentinel'' class; the name for the lead ship was originally intended to be named ''Inchkeith'', but the name was altered prior to construction. Four more 12-pounders were added to the specification in August. The ships had a length between perpendiculars of , a beam of and a deep draught of . They displaced at normal load and at deep load. Their crew consisted of 289 officers and other ranks.〔Friedman 2009, pp. 100, 294, 301〕
The ships were powered by a pair of four-cylinder triple-expansion steam engines, each driving one shaft, using steam provided by a dozen Vickers-Express boilers. The engines were designed to produce a total of which was intended to give a maximum speed of 25 knots.〔Chesneau & Kolesnik, pp. 84–85〕 The scout cruisers soon proved too slow for this role as newer destroyers outpaced them. The ''Sentinel''-class ships carried a maximum of of coal.〔Friedman 2009, pp. 101, 294〕
The main armament of the ''Sentinel'' class consisted of ten quick-firing (QF) 12-pounder 18-cwt guns.〔Friedman 2011, p. 112〕 Three guns were mounted abreast on the forecastle and the quarterdeck, with the remaining four guns positioned port and starboard amidships. They also carried eight 3-pounder Hotchkiss guns and two submerged 18-inch (450 mm) torpedo tubes.〔 The ships' protective deck armour ranged in thickness from and the conning tower had armour inches thick.〔
