History: Launched in 1925 as a response by the Royal Telosian Navy to powerful new foreign battlecruiser designs such as the American Lexington-Class, Japanese Amagi-Class, and British Anson-Class (G-3 design), the Illustrious was equipped with a formidable armament of ten 16" (406mm) guns mounted in 5 turrets, in a similar arrangement to their Japanese adversaries the Amagi-Class. Equipped with relatively heavy armour for a battlecruiser, the Illustrious class was designed to have some resistance to the 16" guns that her rivals all mounted. Capable of 31 knots, they had the speed to run down most opponents, or flee any that might overpower them. The class consisted of four ships, Illustrious, Indefatigable, Intrepid, and Indomitable.

A special thanks to MintLynx for a multitude of modded parts. The propellers, and rudders are both by him. The previous version also had guns that he provided. Check out his work if you haven't already!

Updated version of the Illustrious. Now with the new cannon part installed in all turrets. Don't let the amidships gun fire while pointed at the ship, bad things happen, and its on a separate activation group for a reason. An update to an existing design rather than a new build, but with some very enjoyable new features.

The Illustrious received a substantial refit in 1956
