Evstafi class battleship

Evstafi class battleship

The "Evstafi"-class were pre-Dreadnought battleships of the Imperial Russian Navy. They served in the Black Sea Fleet and fought during World War I. They were slightly enlarged versins of the Potemkin, with increased armour and 4 extra8 inch guns. Some alterations were made as a result of experience in the Russo Japanese war delaying the completion of the two ships.
