A battleship design study for circa 1908 (actually, it was 1909)

I believe that this was being considered as part of my German building program. The ships would probably have been built starting in 1908 or 1909. The armor basis was 13in and the speed was 24 knots. The armament was 9-12in/50 and 8-6in QF guns. UPDATE: This turns out to have been an early version of the Ger/BB/1909 design. This is a comparison of the weights:

Category       Planned        Springsharp

Hull           12,300 tons      11,344 tons
Armament        1,345.5 tons     1,080 tons
Machinery       4,500 tons       2,019 tons
Miscellaneous   2,160 tons       3,287 tons (?)
Protection      6,694.5 tons     9,270 tons

The comparison may not be very good, as the categories are likely to be defined differently. Still, it is a rough comparison. This is the Sprinsharp report:
