Six specialists to modernize the Royal Navy in 1905

The proposed team covers aviation, industrial quality, medicine, explosives, railways, and naval design.

Question

Which six modern specialists should be sent to improve the Royal Navy in 1905?

Short answer

Choose aviation, quality-control, medical, explosives, infrastructure, and naval-design experts to improve the whole fleet system.

Notes

The six-person team is chosen to address several different obstacles to naval modernization in 1905. Steve George would accelerate aviation development, while Drachinifel would oversee industrial quality control, including guns and armor. Dan F would improve medical care and assessment, with Canopus's Falklands deployment given as a warning about inadequate care. Dan C would work on explosives and reliable shell fuzes. Gareth would handle railway infrastructure, and Marcus is the final choice for naval design. Henderson and Stanley Goodall are attractive alternatives only if the scenario permits bringing people from another historical period.
