== The ''Centaur'' class ==
The ''Centaur'' subclass were ordered in December 1914, and built using materials originally intended for two [[scout cruiser]]s to be built for [[Turkey]]. These vessels were launched and commissioned in 1916. The class also had geared turbines as well as four screws. They retained the two funnels introduced to the C class by the ''Cambrian''s. Their main armament was five 6 in guns in single mounts. Their {{convert|4|in|mm|0|adj=on}} guns were mostly replaced in a similar fashion to the previous sub-classes, with smaller calibre weapons.
