After the first simulated exchange, the Austro-Hungarian design is checked against the Radetzky class. The game's 12-inch/45-calibre guns match the historical main battery chosen for the model, while the available hull cannot readily reproduce the class's 9.4-inch intermediate battery. That mismatch shows how a plausible simulation design may still simplify an actual semi-dreadnought's mixed-calibre armament. The historical reference ship and the improvised opponent used in the battle remain distinct.

Checking the Austrian design against the Radetzky class
A post-battle armament check separates the historical Radetzky-class baseline from the simplified Austro-Hungarian ship used in the simulation.
