The proposed ship is built around 18-inch, 42-calibre guns, with its protection estimated from the Queen Elizabeth class. Using the earlier gun-to-armour ratio as a guide places the proposed main belt at about 16 inches, with decks, turrets, barbettes, and other protected areas adjusted around that choice. The hull receives a far-reaching interwar modernization that includes an all-or-nothing protection scheme and updated machinery. This is a historically constrained thought experiment inside the game rather than a documented design.
