    For its time it was relevant! But even now, such a caliber may be relevant if the towers are lowered to the wave line, overall visibility and damage will decrease markedly, even from anti-ship missiles!

      And if you lower it below sea level - that’s how stealth will turn out ...
      Dear, when a wave swallows the towers, to fire from them, how to say it ... a little difficult

    Yes, I also complain, we can’t save a single battleship ... They saved the light cruiser thanks to the revolutionary salvo (as a symbol)
    So many possibilities were ..
    The article is excellent, I am waiting for a similar one according to the battleships of the type of Sevastopol (for example, Empress Maria, by the way, he went to Odessa)
    Ehh would save the battleship .. at least one

      The battleship Sevastopol is a sister ship of Gangut, as well as LK Poltava, 4 units were built in total of the Baltic battleships. The LK of the Empress Maria type is a series consisting of 3 ships (the Imperial series as it was also called), the LK Emperor Nikolai 1 can already be attributed to the 3rd generation of Russian battleships, although he retained the 12 "GK, but in terms of constructive protection and armor it differed from its predecessors, it is a pity it was not completed.
      The museum can, in principle, be made at the bottom of the Novorossiysk Bay is the last of the "Emperors".

    I once went on my yacht, and to meet this ship, also "Gangut". Beauty, isn't it?

    Many thanks to the author for the material provided, I watched with great pleasure the first article about "Poltava". At one time I read the book by I.F. Tsvetkov the battleship "October Revolution" - this is the former "Gangut". Photos are certainly incomparable, at "Poltava" at first, in general, I thought that they were made for foreign intelligence services. In the workshop, or not, or very few people, shift shift, day off, and who then takes pictures? Tea, not a "soap dish" in his hands. And everything is in chronological order The tugs, leading out a kind of Leviathan to anchor, smiled. Mercilessly they pull the beauty, power and pride of the Russian Imperial Navy, and I just want to say - "it's hard for you little ones ..."

    The Russians, even under the imperial crown, even under the "terrible and nightmarish totalitarianism", and in the era of "striving for democracy and progress", have built and will build magnificent warships, one glance at the capabilities of which will very quickly cool the ardor of any Western "strategist.
