HMS Canopus Two ships of the British Royal Navy have been named HMS "Canopus" :
HMS Canopus HMS "Canopus" was also the name of a Royal Navy training base at Alexandria in World War II.
HMS Canopus (1897) "Canopus"s keel was laid down at Portsmouth Dockyard on 4 January 1897. The ship was launched on 12 October 1897, and completed on 5 December 1899. She was named after the ancient city of Canopus, Egypt, where the Battle of the Nile took place.
HMS Canopus (1897) The "Canopus"-class ships were the first British battleships with water-tube boilers, which generated more power at less expense in weight compared with the cylindrical boilers used in previous ships. The new boilers led to the adoption of fore-and-aft funnels, rather than the side-by-side funnel arrangement used in many previous British battleships. The "Canopus"-class ships proved to be good steamers, consuming 10 tons of coal per hour at full speed, with a high speed for battleships of their time, a full two knots faster than the "Majestic"s.
HMS Canopus (1897) "Canopus" returned to full commission on 9 May 1905 and was sent to relieve the battleship on the China Station. She had reached Colombo, Ceylon on her outbound voyage when the United Kingdom and Japan ratified a treaty of alliance. The alliance meant that the United Kingdom could have a reduced presence on the China Station and battleships were no longer required there, so "Canopus" was recalled from Colombo in June 1905 and thus was the only "Canopus"-class battleship which did not serve on the China Station.
