L-R HMS Alexandra & HMS Inflexible. Both Spider Navy models.
As part of the British Mediterranean Squadron, both ships also involved in the shelling of Alexandria, Egypt during the Urabi uprising in 1882.
Side note: I believe (then Capt.) Jackie Fisher was skipper of Inflexible at the time. Previous Message
