Dreadnought, английский
- A type of battleship designed with an "all-big-gun" armament layout in which the ship`s primary gun power resided in a primary battery of its largest guns intended for use at long range, with other gun armament limited to small weapons intended for close-range defense against torpedo boats and other small warships. most, but not all, dreadnoughts also had steam turbine propulsion. predominant from 1906, dreadnoughts differed from earlier steam battleships, retroactively dubbed "predreadnoughts", which had only a few large guns, relied on an intermediate secondary battery used at shorter ranges for most of their offensive power, and had triple-expansion steam engines.
- [1] generic term for a battleship. [2] name of a british warship launched in 1906; the first to be heavily armored and carry a battery of uniform caliber heavy guns—a revolutionary design which made all previous battleships obsolete. (said to have been named after the family motto of her sponsor, first sea lord john arbuthnot [jackie] fisher, “fear god and dread nought.”)
