Some minor correction

[edit]
  • in order to speed up completion she used parts prepared for Aleksander III (armor for turrets and other) and spear guns lodgments from Sevastopol and Poltava battleship
  • 27 June 1915 - old style - not new
  • 18 October 1915 - she entered Black See Fleet service

  • The ammunition for the forward 12-inch guns was reduced from 100 to 70 rounds each while the forward 130-mm ammunition was reduced from 245 to 100 rounds per gun in an attempt to compensate for her trim.- it's not related to Ekaterina Velikaya- the problem was partially solved during construction by moving some payload aftward
  • 5 January 1916 - old style
  • Last operation of ship taken place 1 November 1917 - to intercept battlecruiser Yavuz - but then the ship was directed in close vicinity to minefilds near Varna crew was refused to continue war and demanded to return to base.

  • The fourth torpedo - incorrect - she sunk after six torpedo hit - 2and 5 were not explodedJo0doe (talk) 09:27, 26 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Breslau/Midilli

[edit]

Halpern refers to an engagement with Breslau/Midilli on 4 April 1916 on pages 242-243 - this should be included here. Parsecboy (talk) 02:11, 5 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

And another engagement off the Bosporus on 27 May 1917, on page 253. Parsecboy (talk) 02:31, 5 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
That's actually 25 June.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 20:44, 29 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
