This article refers to the entire King George V-class (1911); it is not about an individual vessel.

ww2dbaseKing George V-class battleships of 1911 were a group of four battleships built just before WW1. The design derived from their predecessors, the Orion-class battleships. They were heavier than the Orion-class ships, allowing them to carry heavier underwater armor. In terms of armament, they carried the same caliber guns as the Orion-class ships, but they fired heavier shells. Overall, this class of battleships were considered very successful. By the WW2-era, however, only one ship, HMS Centurion, remained. Outdated, Centurion played only relatively minor roles in th war.
