THE BATTLECRUISER HMS HOOD By Stefan Draminski Hood, launched in 1918 was the last battlecruiser built in Great Britain. During the construction the design had to be extensively modified to embody the experience of the Battle of Jutland, which markedly exposed insufficient armor of British battlecruisers. However not all shortcomings were eliminated, which later contributed to the loss of the ship. Fully illustrated and ideal for naval modellers.
