Framed Print of Our Ironclad Fleet: H.M.S. Devastation, 1871. Creator: Unknown
Our Ironclad Fleet: H.M.S. Devastation, 1871. The new ironclad ship...is a seagoing monitor, carrying 35-ton guns, and protected by thicknesses of 14-in. 12-in. and 10-in. armour-plate...Abreast of the two turrets, which, with the funnel, the conning tower, and all openings below, stand inside it, the armour-plating is 12 in. in thickness...By the adoption of the breastwork in the Devastation as a second and lesser deck, rising from the hull proper, the bases of her turrets are as efficiently protected from an enemy's fire as is the body of the ship's hull itself at the water-line, while such an increased height is given to her turret guns that she will fight them at sea as high as the most powerful of our recently-constructed broadside frigates...Each turret will be armed with two Frazer muzzle-loading rifled guns of 35 tons each - the most powerful rifled ordnance, whether for land or sea service, as yet in existence. The turrets can be made to revolve either by steam or hand power...The ship's engines, made by Messrs. John Penn and Sons, are two pairs, driving twin screws independently, with a collective power nominally of 800 horse, but can work to seven times that force. The ship will carry 1800 tons of coal'.
