SMS Szent István, only “Hungarian” battleship ever (only battleship built in Hungarian part of Dual monarchy, all others major warships were built in Trieste), 1916 [2041 x 1248]
Gorgeous ship, always fascinated by the presence of Austro-Hungarian, Ottoman, etc. imperial warships in this era. Albeit the A-H Navy would’ve been better served by investing in TBDs/destroyers, as Italian torpedo boats would be one of their largest threats.
Still, love seeing dreadnoughts from the old imperial powers.
