Actually, the Super Lion was Admiral Fisher's idea

Winston Churchill published correspondence with Admiral Fisher about ship design in Vol.I of The World Crisis, in The Romance of Design chapter, as I have previously written. It was in a letter to Churchill that Admiral Fisher advocated the "Super Lion", with a 30 knot speed and 10-"Improved Guns" (codeword for the 15in gun that Churchill wanted to develop). The idea for the Super Lion was not pursued, despite Admiral Fisher's advocacy, but I have long been interested. That is what has prompted various attempts at designing such a ship. The last Springsharp design and the accompanying photo is my latest work. I may make an alternative photo with Tiger-like funnels, as well.
