Armor for Our War Ships Tests on Nickel Steel Armor
The government advances in designing battle-ship armor with nickel steel. It aims for impenetrability and minimal splintering by balancing a hardened front surface with a softer backing. Recent tests explore combining hardness and resilience to reduce cracking while stopping projectiles.

Nickel steel plates and a novel Harvey process provide armor with a tempered surface and softer back. The first test proved superior, and the Harvey steel will be used on all armored vessels except Miantonomah and Monterey. No New England mills will produce this armor due to coal and iron restrictions.
