Torpedo bulkhead 2.00" / 51 mm

Machinery:
Oil fired boilers, steam turbines,
Geared drive, 4 shafts, 71,339 shp / 53,219 Kw = 25.18 kts
Range 15,500nm at 10.00 kts

Complement:
1,230 - 1,599

Cost:
£15.492 million / $61.967 million

Distribution of weights at normal displacement:
Armament: 1,811 tons, 5.5 %
Armour: 13,554 tons, 40.8 %
Belts: 3,709 tons, 11.2 %, Armament: 3,770 tons, 11.3 %, Armour Deck: 4,763 tons, 14.3 %
Conning Tower: 291 tons, 0.9 %, Torpedo bulkhead: 1,022 tons, 3.1 %
Machinery: 1,977 tons, 6.0 %
Hull, fittings & equipment: 12,437 tons, 37.4 %
Fuel, ammunition & stores: 3,443 tons, 10.4 %
Miscellaneous weights: 0 tons, 0.0 %

Metacentric height 5.3

Remarks:
Hull space for machinery, storage & compartmentation is excellent
Room for accommodation & workspaces is excellent

Estimated overall survivability and seakeeping ability:
Relative margin of stability: 1.00
Shellfire needed to sink: 37,430 lbs / 16,978 Kg = 22.2 x 15.0 " / 381 mm shells
(Approx weight of penetrating shell hits needed to sink ship excluding critical hits)
Torpedoes needed to sink: 7.5
(Approx number of typical torpedo hits needed to sink ship)
Relative steadiness as gun platform: 67 %
(Average = 50 %)
Relative rocking effect from firing to beam: 0.57
Relative quality as seaboat: 1.19

Hull form characteristics:
Block coefficient: 0.526
Sharpness coefficient: 0.40
Hull speed coefficient 'M': 6.04
'Natural speed' for length: 25.19 kts
Power going to wave formation at top speed: 50 %
Trim: 56
(Maximise stabilty/flotation = 0, Maximise steadiness/seakeeping = 100)

Estimated hull characteristics & strength:
Underwater volume absorbed by magazines and engineering spaces: 76.9 %
Relative accommodation and working space: 132.9 %
(Average = 100%)
Displacement factor: 104 %
(Displacement relative to loading factors)
Relative cross-sectional hull strength: 0.97
(Structure weight / hull surface area: 200 lbs / square foot or 978 Kg / square metre)
Relative longitudinal hull strength: 1.71
(for 20.00 ft / 6.10 m average freeboard, freeboard adjustment 0.75 ft)
Relative composite hull strength: 1.02
