1:100 HMS WARRIOR Heigth: 67cmLength: 147cmWidth: 39cmScale: 1:100Warrior was designed and built in response to an aggressive French
shipbuilding programme which saw the introduction of the first iron-clad
warship La Gloire designed by the brilliant naval architect Stanislas
Charles Henri Dupuy de Lome. Determined to see off this challenge to the
supremacy of the Royal Navy the then First Lord of the Admiralty, Sir
John Somerset Pakington, determined to build a ship so superior in terms
of quality, speed, size, armament and armour that it would be
inconceivable to France that she could take Britain on in a sea battle.
When commissioned by Captain the Hon. Arthur Auckland Leopold Pedro
Cochrane, on August 1st 1861, Warrior was the largest warship in the
world, at 9,210 tons displacement she was fully 60% larger than La
Gloire. The ship underwent minor modifications after a sea trial. In
June 1862, she started active service in the Channel Squadron,
patrolling coastal waters and sailing to Lisbon and Gibraltar. Having
introduced a revolution in naval architecture, by 1864 Warrior was
superseded by faster designs, with bigger guns and thicker armour.
