INTERMEDIATE DREADNOUGHT DANTON....
Too heavily armed to be a typical pre dreadnought,..... French were just too unsure to jump to expensively armed full all big gun ships and so continued with designs and weapons they had already... finished after the quickly built Dreadnought ...but they still used turbines and designed for 19 knts they tested up to 23 knots of speed.....but consumption was huge and they needed frequent refueling.... armament though no dreadnought uniformity there was 4 12 inch guns in 2 twin turrets and 12 9.4 inch in 6 twin turrets for a weighty broadside....
