I hope you are all doing good. There are many persons in this group who are asking about what is a dreadnought ship? So here is the detailed of this ship and I will post some more information about it in my next post.
In the early 20th century, the dreadnought battleship was the most common. When the first of its kind, the Royal Navy's HMS Dreadnought, was launched in 1906, it made such an impression that subsequent battleships of a similar design became known as "dreadnoughts," while prior battleships were referred to as "pre-dreadnoughts." Her design featured two ground-breaking elements: steam turbine propulsion and a "all-big-gun" armament system with an unparalleled number of heavy-calibre guns. With the introduction of these new battleships, the naval arms race between Germany and the United Kingdom was rekindled as dreadnoughts rose to prominence as a key symbol of national strength. Up until the start of World War I, dreadnought races erupted all over the world, including in South America.
