How far Fisher foresaw battleship obsolescence

Did Admiral Fisher see the writing on the wall for battleships?

To an extent, but Fisher's later self-presentation made his foresight look greater than it really was.

Fisher may have seen that capital-ship warfare was changing. The strongest version of Fisher as a prophet who had already understood the battleship's whole future is not supported. Fisher's later account made his foresight appear more complete than the contemporary evidence warrants. Historical reputation should be compared with what a figure actually argued at the time.
