Updated photo of Colonel Cuniberti's "Ideal Battleship for the British Navy"
I needed to go back and update my first photo of Colonel Cuniberti's Ideal Battleship for the British Navy. I had heard about this design quite a long time ago, and when I obtained my own copy of the 1903 Jane's All the World's Fighting Ships, I did some analysis and realized that Colonel Cuniberti was rather over-optimistic about what could be done. My last Springsharp design for this ship is about as good as you can do, and still stay anywhere near the size that Colonel Cuniberti had specified. I have a better understanding of how the ship was laid out, than when I first did this photo.
