Today in 1815 120 gun superbattleship HMS St Vincent was launched.
Built to take on France's rebuilt fleet it never fired a shot in the Nap War & didn't see much action after
Scrapped in 1906 (by someone who will spend eternity in Tartarus) BUT she was captured on film

A cruel, cruel fate for a ship designed to fight them!
