Here is the Byzantium report for 1912H2.

Scrap
The old battleships of 1890-92 whose speed is 18kts will be scrapped in 1912-13.
The old destroyers and torpedo boats with a speed of 21kts will be scrapped soon (1914).

Reclassification
Destroyers are now with 102 or 120mm guns & a minimal speed of 25kts
Destroyer with 3 "guns are now Torpedo Boat.

1913
As I have already noted, the "birth" of the Chinese and Japanese fleets in 1912 transformed the strategic vision of the Byzantine Empire.
Byzantium needs more colonial cruisers. 6 Cruisers will be laid down in 1913H1 as well as 2 battleships of 25 850t. Imperator class, 29,300t project, was postponed.
Construction of 1000t long range destroyers is also planned.

The Byzantine Empire will build with pleasure the 10,000t battleship Atahualpa for the Inca Empire.
