The Roebuck-class ship was a class of twenty 44-gun sailing two-decker warships of the Royal Navy. The class carried two complete decks of guns, a lower battery of 18-pounders and an upper battery of 9-pounders. This battery enabled the vessel to deliver a broadside of 285 pounds. Most were constructed for service during the American Revolutionary War but continued to serve thereafter. By 1793 five were still on the active list. Ten were hospital ships, troopships or storeships. As troopships or storeships they had the guns on their lower deck removed. Many of the vessels in the class survived to take part in the Napoleonic Wars. In all, maritime incidents claimed five ships in the class and war claimed three.

  • Die Roebuck-Klasse war ein Baulos von insgesamt 20 Zweidecker-Linienschiffen der Royal Navy. Die Konzeption der Klasse lag in den Händen des Surveyors (etwa Aufsichtsbeamten der Flotte) und Master Shipwright Sir Thomas Slade. Benannt war sie nach dem englischen Erfinder John Roebuck. Die Schiffe trugen 44 Kanonen in zwei Batteriedecks, sowie je zwei zusätzliche an Bug und am Heck. Diese Bewaffnung ermöglichte ein Breitseitengewicht von 285 Pfund. Ursprünglich gebaut für den Einsatz im Amerikanischen Unabhängigkeitskrieg, waren sie teilweise noch lange danach im Einsatz. (de)
