"THE BATTLE-SHIP "FORMIDABLE" LEAVING PORTSMOUTH HARBOUR.
"The "Formidable" is the name ship of a group of six battle-ships in whose completion, as a whole, there has been considerable delay. She was laid down on March 17, 1898, launched on November 17 the same year, and is now nearly ready for sea. She has a displacement of 15,000 tons, and a belt of Krupp steel extending over rather more than half her length. Her barbettes and conning-towers are well protected. Her armament consists of four 12-in. wire guns, twelve 6-in. quick-firers, and a number of smaller guns, and her speed 18 knots.
