==Ships== The three ''Invincible''s were ordered at the same time as ''Dreadnought'' as part of the 1905–06 Naval Programme. The following table gives the build details and purchase cost of the members of the ''Invincible'' class. Whilst standard British practice at that time was for these costs to '''exclude''' armament and stores, for some reason the cost quoted in [[Brassey's Naval Annual|The Naval Annual]] for this class ''includes'' armament. {| class="wikitable" plaintowheaders" |+ Construction data ! scope="col" rowspan=2 |Ship ! scope="col" style="text-align:center;" rowspan="2"| Builder ! scope="col" style="text-align:center;" rowspan="2"| [[Laid down]] ! scope="col" style="text-align:center;" rowspan="2"| [[Ceremonial ship launching|Launched]] ! scope="col" style="text-align:center;" rowspan="2"| Commissioned ! scope="col" colspan = 2 |Cost<small> according to</small> |- ! scope="col" style="text-align:center;"| [[Brassey's Naval Annual|BNA]] 1914<br> (estimated cost, including guns)<ref>Brassey's Naval Annual 1914, pp. 192–199</ref> ! scope="col" style="text-align:center;"| Parkes<ref>Parkes, pp. 492–496</ref> |- | scope="row" | {{HMS|Invincible|1907|2}} |align=center | [[Armstrong Whitworth]], [[Elswick, Tyne and Wear|Elswick]] |align=center | 2 April 1906 |align=center | 13 April 1907 |align=center | 20 March 1909<ref>Roberts, Preston and Brassey's say 1909, though Parkes says 1908.</ref> |align=right | [[pound sterling|£]]1,768,995 |align=right | £1,635,739<br /><small>armament </small>£90,000 |- | scope="row" |{{HMS|Inflexible|1907|2}} |align=center | [[John Brown and Company|John Brown & Co.]], [[Clydebank]] |align=center | 5 February 1906 |align=center | 26 June 1907 |align=center | 20 October 1908 |align=right | £1,728,229 |align=right | £1,677,515<br /><small>armament </small>£90,000 |- | scope="row" |{{HMS|Indomitable|1907|2}} |align=center | [[Fairfield Shipbuilding and Engineering Company|Fairfield]], [[Govan]] |align=center | 1 March 1906 |align=center | 16 March 1907 |align=center | 25 June 1908 |align=right | £1,761,080 |align=right | £1,662,337<br /><small>armament </small>£90,000 |}
