Once the first shipments of British steel comes in, Rumania will begin construction of the Forgetto Battleship, also one of a kind. This battleship, being much bigger then the Godebva, will be the Flagship for the Rumanian Navy. The Forgetto is so expensive it will delay most of the ship production for a while.

Distribution of weights at normal displacement:
Armament: 3,963 tons, 3.8 %
Armour: 20,008 tons, 19.2 %
- Belts: 5,716 tons, 5.5 %
- Torpedo bulkhead: 0 tons, 0.0 %
- Armament: 4,246 tons, 4.1 %
- Armour Deck: 9,565 tons, 9.2 %
- Conning Tower: 480 tons, 0.5 %
Machinery: 6,154 tons, 5.9 %
Hull, fittings & equipment: 52,969 tons, 51.0 %
Fuel, ammunition & stores: 20,854 tons, 20.1 %
Miscellaneous weights: 0 tons, 0.0 %
Overall survivability and seakeeping ability:
Stability (Unstable if below 1.00): 1.46
Metacentric height 17.6 ft / 5.4 m
Steadiness - As gun platform (Average = 50 %): 56 %
- Recoil effect (Restricted arc if above 1.00): 0.18
