The HMCS Preserver is under construction in the drydock, while the HMCS Protecteur has been launched and is fitting out pierside.

Is the turret of HMS invincible seen just about to splash into the water in this picture of her magazine explosion, right underneath her bridge and tripod mast where the trail of fire and flame curls down, as I don’t see A turret in its normal place, and I see clear indication the turret is not sitting on its barbette as there is a lot of smoke and fire shooting out of it, does this image capture her turret about to splash into the water?
