What a great video, thank you. Warrior is a wonderful ship, i get to visit 4 or 5 times a year, and always look forward to my visits. Many thanks should go to the Dock workers in Hartlepool who transformed warrior from a hulk to the beauty we see today. what a wonderful job they did.
Great video! Been on the warrior four times over the years, and she is an epic warship. compared to what came before,, she was on another level entirely!
You forgot to mention that HMS warrior had the first official "bridges" on a warship - two literal bridges over the deck for the officers to stand on. This was because the gunwhales (the "walls" of the deck) were to high to see over.
I can assure anyone confused that only the funnels were wound up and down, most likely a sheethe of some sort...the boilers themselves were among the heaviest items afloat
hey i'm a 3d modelling student, was wondering what other references you used such as line drawings and schemtaics to make an accurate recreation of the ships hull.
Warrior probably has a lot more torque though, you have to remember that something like a traction engine would have about 6hp at this time, but they could probably pull over 50tons
Gloire was wooden hulled with iron armour plating (i.e an "Ironclad"), Warrior is iron hulled and armour plated which is what the narrator is referring to.

Beautifully done, words as well as images
Fascinating! What a brilliant ship.
Built by Thames Ironworks and Shipbuilding Company which had a football team who later became West Ham United, hence the 'Irons' nickname.
Never fired a shot in anger...
Bet they had a blast test firing a few times though.. and not much for ear muff technology then...

"powerful engines producing 1250 Hp...." Lol. We have cars that have that horsepower to day. We've come a long way.

It was the second metal ship the French built the first

Ahhh The French frigate Felacio....named for the preferred leisure activity of French soliders
