The new machinery was estimated to reach a speed of 25 knots (46 km/h; 29 mph) with only 19 standard atmospheres (20 kg/cm 2; 280 psi) of pressure, greatly increasing the range compared to earlier torpedo boats with the same boilers. [2] [Note 2]

It is defined as the volume of a cube with sides of 1 mile (1.6 km ) length, giving a volume of 1 cubic mile (4.2 km 3 ).
The battleships were the same size as the battlecruisers and L 1 and L 3 had the same armament of eight 38 cm guns (L 2 would have mounted ten of those guns) but they would have had a top speed of 25 to 26 knots (46 to 48 km/h; 29 to 30 mph) compared to the 29 to 29.5 knots (53.7 to 54.6 km/h; 33.4 to 33.9 mph) speeds of the Ersatz Yorck s and ...
