RN:
Colourised image of HMS Commonwealth, a King Edward VII class pre-dreadnought. The photo is from 1912, The King Edward VIIs were the first British battleships with balanced rudders since the 1870s and were very manoeuvrable, with a tactical diameter of 340 yards (310 m) at 15 knots (28 km/h; 17 mph). However, they were difficult to keep on a straight course, and this characteristic led to them being nicknamed "the Wobbly Eight" during their 1914–1916 service in the Grand Fleet. They had a slightly faster roll than previous British battleship classes, but were good gun platforms, although very wet in bad weather.

Malaysia:
Navy yard at Lumut, Malaysia. The ships in the open are completed, but drawn on land for a refit. The closest is a Kasturi class, the farther one appears to be a Kedah class.
The ship under cover in the rear and the parts we see in the building are likely for the Maharaja Lela class currently under construction.

Denmark:
HDMS Niels Juel a training cruiser, circa 1938.
HDMS Niels Juel was a training ship built for the Royal Danish Navy between 1914 and 1923. Originally designed before World War I as a monitor, construction was slowed by the war and she was redesigned as a training cruiser. Completed in 1923 she made training cruises to the Black and Mediterranean Seas, South America and numerous shorter visits to ports in northern Europe. The ship often served as a flagship and occasionally was used as a royal yacht for visits to overseas possessions and other countries.
