MikB Posted 7 August , 2020 Share Posted 7 August , 2020 (edited) One of the earlier battlecruisers, I suspect Invincible in early 1916 after AA armament had been added. The forefunnel was raised up in Feb. '15, after the Falklands battle. Edited 7 August , 2020 by MikB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knotty Posted 7 August , 2020 Share Posted 7 August , 2020 I’ve got this picture of HMS Indomitable from the Naval Encyclopaedia ©, do you think it is her? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fovant Posted 7 August , 2020 Share Posted 7 August , 2020 Another vote for Invincible. Checking the Perkins Bitish Warship Recognition Album 1, Invincible is the only battlecruiser with a structure that large jutting out on top of the bridge and the structure running from the front of the bridge to the rear of the forefunnel. The top bridge structure on Indomitable seems to be a more complex shape made up of several parts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
