    Of the normal ships - the battleship "Nikolai-I", the KRB "Admiral Nakhimov" and a couple of gunboats. The rest is semi-sailing junk.

        By the way, in "Emperor Nicholas-I" you can, if you wish, score a lot of PU URO. When dismantling part of the artillery systems. And all this will be perfectly protected, compact and powerful.

    An informative excursion into the history of the imperial, Pacific fleet of Russia, thanks to the author for the selection of photographs, that I interestingly saw a photograph of the legendary gunboat Koreets, who died with the Varangian.

    There, all the junk, transitional structures, no longer captors sailing ships and still not really armadillos. I bow to those who walked on these shells (or irons) in the oceans and still fought.
    Thanks for the stuff.

      "Emperor Nicholas-I" is not a transitional design, but quite a mature battleship of the battleship-type squadron with all the bells and whistles. The same goes for the "Admiral Nakhimov" - a first-class armored cruiser.

        And is it worth arguing about this? The first-class armored cruiser is the Bayan. This is really power and beauty. And at "Nakhimov" you can see the same sailing equipment. Well, "Nakhimov" and "Rurik" are even less so.
        As for the "Nikolai 1", an attempt to save money and build something worthwhile turned into this very strange ship in appearance, two main guns? or one (several ships of the same type were built, their characteristics differ), the same Black Sea "Chesma" with barbets (6 main guns) and that looks more solid.
        The classics of the genre are "Potemkin", "Three Saints"

          Which one with two 203mm guns? Complete crap. "Nakhimov" could fire eight 203mm guns in response. Or rather 4-2x203mm AU GK + 10-152mm AU SK. The weapon is quite at the level of WW2 SRT.

          As for Nicholas 1, an attempt to save

          This is not an attempt to save money, but an attempt to make a battleship adapted for action in narrow areas. Yes, it had only one 305mm bow gun mount of the main caliber. There was no stern. But on the other hand, there was a full-fledged intermediate caliber, which was not on any of our other battleships until the end of the RYA. "Nikolay-I" had excellent seaworthiness, good (for its time driving performance and protection) and could put 1-2x305mm + 4 - 229mm + 8 - 152mm + PMK + TA. Generally normal. Not to say that the ship turned out to be perfect, but certainly complete. In the Tsushima battle, it was he who was among the most productive Russian ships. He so sold the Japanese KRB "Asama" that he was out of action until the end of the battle. In addition, he inflicted considerable damage to other Japanese ships. All from a distance of 30-50 cables.

            The "Bayan" has a higher rate of fire. In addition, the mass of the projectile is 118 kg versus 86. Not to mention the age difference of almost 20 years.

        "Admiral Nakhimov" in these photographs is already 10 years old. Well, in no way he pulls on a first-class ship.

      "Cruisers of the 1st rank" are no better there. Although "Dmitry Donskoy" single-handedly fought off a whole squadron of Japanese light cruisers. And before that I bought one Japanese cruiser for the most part. It's a mixture of a rank 1 cruiser and an armored cruiser.

    And we never had "endless" money, especially for the fleet, so for a very long time there were no serial battleships. As for one tower on the nose, then, as they say now, everything was "in trend". Not only we built such battleships, so the English battleship "Victoria" accidentally drowned during maneuvers with a ramming strike of another battleship (I can lie, but something similar to "Comperdown") had just such an architecture - one tower on the nose. All this goes back to the impression of the results of the battle of Lisse in 1866 between the Italian and Austrian fleets, where the ramming strike turned out to be very effective, so it seemed tempting to shoot the enemy with the main caliber a couple of times before putting the enemy on the spy. Therefore, "Nikolai" was very typical for its time.

    Nicholas I, a child of his time, his ideas and designs of designers. During its development, shipbuilders tried to realize the plans and tasks of their time and era. Large-caliber guns rarely shot with large shells, 152 mm guns more often but very small. Conclusion - something in between can be better than large and slow and small and small. The desire to get a compromise. In front of you. In addition, the radical model is Gangut.

    "Nikolai-I" had excellent seaworthiness

    One question, Krang: what seaworthiness can be with such a low forecastle? Even the "Admiral Nakhimov" was criticized for the excessive flooding of the forecastle. Even the possibility of dismantling the bow barbet with 8 "guns and raising the forecastle by one deck was considered.
    And I was struck by the activities of Russian shipbuilders. Indeed: in 1895, the entire squadron was sail-screw, and after 10 years - the most modern 1st Pacific. It’s a pity, only that it was unsuccessfully used. But in terms of its parameters, it is quite on the level.

      He's not short. 2 floors. The same as on Japanese battleships and our type "Poltava" there "Sisoy Velikiy", etc. Higher than that of "Navarin", "Three Saints". And there was nothing special there either. But the feed is generally three-story. Battleships of the "Alexander-II" type have proven themselves excellently on long voyages.

      Well yes. The modern ships at that time included Navarin, Nikolai-I, Alexander-II, the Black Sea series of four battleships of the Chesma class. "12 Apostles", "Gangut", "Sisoy Veiliky", "Three Saints" - tops. “Poltava” were getting ready now.

    Indeed: in 1895 - the entire squadron is a helical sail

    How long do you think a warship should serve? Twenty-five years obligatory ("Memory of Azov", won, already in 19 they drowned!). Therefore, everything converges the most mastered in the fleet ships are sent to the far corner to put pressure on a weak enemy. And at the same time, sails are very useful, endlessly bunkering in the sea is below average pleasure.

    and in 10 years - the most modern 1st Pacific.

    Well, well, the most modern, and "Korean"? and in the second and third squadrons the same familiar faces "Nikolay" and "Nakhimov".
