How much larger would Fearless and Intrepid need to be for more hangar, command, and gun capacity?
Short answerOnly about one or two thousand tons larger, rather than as large as the later Albion class.
NotesThe proposed alterations give Fearless and Intrepid more hangar space and command facilities. Twin 4.5-inch guns and probably some 40 mm weapons are also suggested. The estimated displacement increase is around one thousand tons, with a couple of thousand tons as the upper estimate. The proposal therefore does not require an assault ship as large as Albion.
