Creating Vanguard, the British had, on the one hand, to adjust and correct all the shortcomings and shortcomings identified in their strategic line of “capital ships” of the latest generation, and on the other hand, to constantly remember the cost and timing, maximally unifying the project with its predecessors . The result of the engineers' efforts can be considered positive: of course, Vanguard became the best British battleship. The designers achieved especially great success in the traditional British shipbuilding elements: hull, seaworthiness and performance. In this regard, the English ship can be considered the best not only in the Royal Navy, but also, perhaps, the absolute best in this class.
