In lieu of the flying deck seen on British dreadnoughts, the General San Martin-class retained the dual central cranes of the Rivadavia-class, giving the ships an unmistakable profile.

The white peacetime livery is a remnant of the Victorian era, when ships were painted for show and rarely exercised their guns. The turrets are painted as they are in the image above for aerial recognition.

The cage masts give the ships an incredibly American flavour. Each of them features a spotting platform on top and a large range clock. The 12 inch guns in en echelon turrets are a decidedly un-American feature.

The built-up superstructure is typical of early 1930s modernisation programs, where bridges and conning towers were built around existing masts and structures.

As can be seen, amidships turrets can complicate deck arrangements exponentially. While the boats can be damaged by the blast of the main guns, there is no risk of a flying deck collapsing and incapacitating the turrets.

With the exception of the central en echelon turrets, the General San Martin have a fairly symmetrical arrangement, perhaps the feature that most distinguishes them from the Rivadavia class.

Third Christmas gift goes to L4UTY_Z3R0!

The ARA General San Martín-class dreadnought is very heavily inspired by the Rivadavia-class battleships of the Argentine Navy. The primary changes between this and the Rivadavias is the aft cage mast and American-style modernisation of the superstructure.

Happy Holidays :)
