[edit]

under propulsion she is described as having oil fired steam. then under range it describes her coal capacity.??Toyokuni3 (talk) 17:06, 13 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

i have encountered this term in several other british warship articles. i don't think too many readers, myself included, are completely aware of its meaning. i'm assuming it's a rough equivalent of what would be called in the u.s.n.
