Uragan class monitor : ウィキペディア英語版 | Uragan-class monitor
The ''Uragan'' class (also known as the ''Bronenosetz'' class〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Ship Class RUS Bronenosetz )〕) was a class of monitors built for the Baltic Fleet of the Imperial Russian Navy.〔Gribovsky, 1996〕〔Lysenok, 1985〕〔Smirnov, 1983〕〔Smirnov, 1984〕 The ships were built to the plans of the American ''Passaic''-class monitors,〔〔 a design that was tested on a smaller scale on .〔 A total of 10 ships were constructed at five different shipyards in Saint Petersburg, all entering service in 1865. The ships were among the first ironclad warships in the Russian Navy.〔〔Eklof, 1994〕 == Russian-American relations ==
During the American Civil War Americans mistook Russian defensive moves as an indicator of support for the Union cause. Relations between Russia and Britain deteriorated further because of the British support — or what the Russians saw as sponsorship — of the Polish January Uprising of 1863.〔 If war between Russia and Britain were to begin, it was thought likely that British and French Naval forces would try to attack the Russian capital of Saint Petersburg on the Gulf of Finland. It was feared that this would be a repeat of the Baltic theatre of the Crimean War eight years previously, when the Allied steam-powered fleet had outgunned and outmaneuvered the Russian sailing fleet.〔〔 Russians calculated, that in a battle in the confined waters of the Baltic the Russian wooden ships would be worthless, but could do more damage to the British in distant seas. With the wooden fleet gone, Russia would have no naval protection of her home waters.
