At the end of 1907, after the requirement specifications for the new battleship had been determined, the Shipbuilding and Procurement Bureau sent out invitations to Russian and foreign shipbuilding companies to participate in the tender. 9 projects were selected out of 23 submitted, and the project from Baltic Works was considered the best. The construction of four new battleships—Poltava, Petropavlovsk, Sevastopol, and Gangut—lasted from 1909 until 1911. The latter served in the Navy until the end of the 1950s.
