Items related to Battleship Design and Development 1905-1945
Describes in detail how designers are forced to trade off not only the major qualities of speed, firepower and protection, but also the minor qualities of livability vs internal subdivision, roll rate vs stability, multi-gun turrets vs vulnerability to single hits, and a hundred others. No choice is free; every selection means less of something else. He stresses the point that all these tradeoffs favour the larger ship, hence the continual growth in displacement.
