HMS Ramillies was a Royal Sovereign-class battleship of the Royal Navy commissioned into service in 1893.

She became increasingly obsolescent as the all-big-gun concept emerged in the early 1900s. Placed in reserve and eventually paid off, being sold for breaking up in 1913, just as HMS Dreadnought had rendered her entire generation of battleships obsolete. #Navy #battleship #HMSRamillies #maritimehistory #naval #NavalHistory #Predreadnought #RoyalNavy #Ship #warship https://www.destinationsjourney.com/historical-military-photographs/warships-of-the-british-royal-navy/hms-ramillies-1892-battleship/

SMS Pommern was the second ship of the Deutschland-class pre-dreadnought battleships of the Imperial German Navy. Pommern was already obsolete when completed, as HMS Dreadnought had entered service in 1906 and rendered earlier battleship designs outclassed.

Pommern was sunk at the Battle of Jutland
