Background

About the ship

The new design of the battleship took into account the wishes of the leadership regarding the concentration of armament at the ship's aft and forward ends. The ship carried twelve 305 mm guns housed in twin-gun turrets: Two superfiring turrets were located at the ship's aft and forward ends, and two more turrets were placed on each side of the ship. All four battleships in her class were active in the Mediterranean theater of World War I.
