35 ton or 25 ton?

Latest comment: 8 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Was HMS Devastation armed with the RML 12 inch 25 ton gun like the "Design and Construction" section says? Or the RML 12 inch 35 ton gun like the "General Characteristics" section of the information sidebar says? The article on the 35 ton gun includes a photo of the gun and says it is a photo of HMS Devastation, so I suspect that is the answer, but I would prefer this decision to be made by someone who knows more about the subject than I do. Thanks for clearing this up. Darkstar8799 (talk) 17:09, 3 May 2016 (UTC)Reply
