Hello everyone,
My favorite British battleship is the also the last of them, the HMS Vanguard. She was a battleship fitted with reserved 15-inch guns from several other British battleships. Her top speed was 30 knots from a 130k SHP plant borrowed from the Lion class battleships, then on the drawing board.
My question is: Why couldn't Vanguard have been fitted with more powerful machinery to go faster? Specifically, the 160k SHP plant of the G3 battlecruisers.
