Baltic Project
Script error: No such module "Unsubst". Template:Operational plan
The Baltic Project was a plan promoted by the British Admiral Lord Fisher to procure a speedy victory against Germany during the First World War. It involved landing a substantial force, either British or Russian soldiers, on the flat beaches of Pomerania on the North German coast, less than Template:Cvt from Berlin.
Submarines and extensive numbers of mines would keep the invasion force safe from the Imperial German Navy. More than 600 vessels would be required, including landing craft, minesweepers, destroyers, light cruisers, monitors and some heavy shallow draft support ships. The latter were built in the form of the three Courageous-class battlecruisers, Script error: No such module "WPSHIPS utilities"., Script error: No such module "WPSHIPS utilities"., and Script error: No such module "WPSHIPS utilities"..[1][2] The plan was never implemented.
