The HMS Nelson's firepower was defined by its revolutionary forward-mounted, triple 16-inch (406mm) main guns, providing immense punch with nine large shells per broadside, supported by powerful 6-inch secondary guns and effective anti-aircraft armament, though the unique gun placement limited stern firing arcs. Its main guns could fire heavy, 2,048-pound projectiles with great range (over 40,000 yards), but had a slower rate of fire, making it a formidable but distinct battleship. #reel #reels
