Konstam, Angus338 SUPER-BATTLESHIPS OF WORLD WAR I: The Lost Battleships of the Washington Treaty Studies and compares the battleships being designed between 1918 and 1922, which drew on the lessons of World War I. Britain was designing four G3-class 15-inch gun battlecruisers, plus four N3 'hyper-dreadnoughts,' mounting colossal 18-inch guns. The US Navy was planning six new South Dakota battleships, carrying an incredible twelve 16-inch guns, plus six Lexington-class battlecruisers. Japan was working on a similar project, and in 1920 the first of four Amagi-class battlecruisers were laid down. These battleships and battlecruisers were mostly canceled and scrapped, due to the Washington Naval Treaty, with a few, such as Lexington and Akagi, converted into aircraft carriers. Includes new color reconstructions of the G3, H3, South Dakota, Lexington, and Amagi classes. Illustrated throughout with 40 photos and 8 pages of color illustrations.1 vol, 48 pgs 2025 UK, OSPREY PUBLISHING NEW-pb, available late May 2025 ......$20.00 discount: :15% rct ..see our NEW VANGUARD
