About: HMS Dominion

An Entity of Type: ship, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

HMS Dominion was a King Edward VII-class battleship of the Royal Navy. Like all ships of the class (apart from the lead ship of the class, HMS King Edward VII) she was named after an important part of the British Empire, namely the Dominion of Canada. The ship was built by Vickers; she was laid down in May 1902, was launched in August 1903, and was completed in July 1905. Armed with a battery of four 12-inch (305 mm) and four 9.2 in (234 mm) guns, she and her sister ships marked a significant advance in offensive power compared to earlier British battleship designs that did not carry the 9.2 in guns.

  • HMS Dominion was a King Edward VII-class battleship of the Royal Navy. Like all ships of the class (apart from the lead ship of the class, HMS King Edward VII) she was named after an important part of the British Empire, namely the Dominion of Canada. The ship was built by Vickers; she was laid down in May 1902, was launched in August 1903, and was completed in July 1905. Armed with a battery of four 12-inch (305 mm) and four 9.2 in (234 mm) guns, she and her sister ships marked a significant advance in offensive power compared to earlier British battleship designs that did not carry the 9.2 in guns. Commissioned in August 1905, Dominion entered service with the Atlantic Fleet but ran she aground in August 1906 in the Gulf of Saint Lawrence. Repairs took nearly a year, and upon completion, she was assigned to the Home Fleet. Following a reorganisation of the fleet in 1912, she and her sister ships formed the 3rd Battle Squadron, part of the Home Fleet. That year, the squadron went to the Mediterranean Sea during the First Balkan War as part of an international blockade of Montenegro. In 1913, the ship returned to British waters. When the First World War broke out, the 3rd Battle Squadron was assigned to the Grand Fleet, with Dominion conducting operations as part of the Northern Patrol. Through 1914 and 1915, the ships frequently went to sea to search for German vessels, but Britannia saw no action during this period. By the end of the year, the Grand Fleet stopped operating with the older 3rd Battle Squadron ships, and in 1916, the squadron was detached to the Nore Command. The unit subsequently dissolved in March 1918. She was a depot ship for the raids on Zeebrugge and Ostend, and, decommissioned in May, ended the war as an accommodation ship. She was sold in 1921 and eventually scrapped in 1924. (en)

  • La HMS Dominion fu una corazzata classe King Edward VII della Royal Navy. Come tutte le navi della sua classe (tranne la HMS King Edward VII) fu chiamata come un'importante parte dell'Impero Britannico, nel suo caso il Dominion del Canada. È stata l'unica unità della Royal Navy a portare il nome Dominion. Nel 1905 entrò in servizio nell'Atlantic Fleet ma s'incagliò nell'agosto 1906 nel golfo di San Lorenzo. Le riparazioni durarono quasi un anno e al completamento fu riassegnata alla Home Fleet. In seguito ad una riorganizzazione della flotta nel 1912, la nave e le sue gemelle formarono il 3rd Battle Squadron, che servì nel Mediterraneo. Allo scoppio della prima guerra mondiale il 3rd Battle Squadron fu assegnato alla Grand Fleet e la Dominion condusse operazione come parte della Northern Patrol. Nel 1916 la squadra fu distaccata al e sciolta nel marzo 1918. Fu utilizzata come nave madre per gli attacchi su Zeebrugge e Ostenda e fu posta in disarmo nel maggio 1918, terminando la guerra come nave caserma. Nel 1919 fu radiata e demolita nel 1924. (it)
