HMS Howe is destroyed by a fire while building and her armament reused in Monitors.

Hms Howe suffers a catastrophic fire while building and is declared a total loss. Her Armament is reused in a class of 3 Monitors .

How feasible is the idea and what names might the Royal Navy have assigned them .

The choices of names seem to be reuse previous names .

Honour Generals like the original names but those from the First World War

Bomb Vessels turned exploration ships.

Don't the guns just go to a new Hull (instead of Vanguard) as a bigger faster battleships ?

Would The RN not prefer the 10 new 14" guns to 8 old 15" ones ?
