		HM STEAM FRIGATE WARRIOR could thus outsail and outfight every Line-of-Battle Ship in existence at that time and this fact was recognised by the Admiralty Board who subsequently afforded her 3rd Rate Line-of-Battle Ship status on the basis of her 705 ship's company.

		HMS WARRIOR 1860 as the world's first ocean going, iron hulled, armoured warship, was the most formidable naval vessel of her day and one of the most significant warships ever built.

		HMS WARRIOR 1860 has been restored to as near as possible her original condition, allowing groups to step back in time and imagine what life would have been like in the Victorian Navy.

		Despite her revolutionary design, Warrior was soon to be outclassed by turret ships, steam only warships and the introduction of steel hulls during a period when almost every new ship was an experiment that culminated in the launch of HMS Dreadnaught in 1906.
		Warrior was assigned to the Channel Fleet, where she spent nearly all of her seagoing service, guarding Great Britain and the eastern Atlantic against potential maritime threats.
		In 1981, Warrior was given a new upper deck of Victorian timbers taken from the floors of a demolished Bradford warehouse (some of the lower deck timber are original) and, three years later, she received her masts.

		It should also be remembered that HMS Warrior was a full ocean going warship, and in fact sailed to Canada and the West Indies during this period, while the Monitor was only suitable for coast defence duties and was very unseaworthy.
		However, it appears to me that the Warrior was not particularly innovative, all she appears to be is a rather conventional warship of the day with a coating of iron plates.

		Warrior's armour was 4.5 inch rolled iron in 15ft by 3ft plates, tongued and grooved together, backed by 18 inches of teak.
		Warriors main armament was of 30 8 inch smoothbores (15 per broadside), throwing a 68lb ball with a rate of fire of a round every 55 seconds.
		Warrior's task was far more difficult, as Monitor made a very small target, so 10% for the 68lbers and 15% for the rifles, rather than 30 might be a fair guess.
