Canopus-class second-rate ship of the line
From Warlike
Q4252729
The Canopus class consisted of nine 84-gun two-deck, second rate ships of the line built for the Royal Navy: Ganges, Asia, Vengeance, Formidable, Powerful, Clarence, Bombay, Thunderer, Monarch. Their design was based on an enlarged version of the lines of the captured French ship Franklin, since commissioned in the Royal Navy as HMS Canopus, although this ship herself was not included as a member of the class. The earlier ships were initially ordered as 80-gun third rates, but this classification was altered by changes in the rating system in February 1817. These ships are sometimes referred to as the Formidable class.
