| Back in the 60's (oh my) I must have built a dozen Bismark Models. Ships of the Royal Navy were non-existent in the states at that time. (At least in Ohio BFE)
Now of course you cn get most anything for a price. I wond if there's a list anywhere of the number of warships sunk by air as opposed to those by sea action?
Given that some historians say the battleship was obsolete at the start of the conflict. Would not the success of the German pocket battleships at least in part dispute that? I know they endedup on the bottom thanks to the British Navy, but didn't they do quite a bit of damage as well as Jaeger's favorite the Prinz Eugen?
"damn the torpedoes. Full speed ahead!" Admiral Farragut
Bold and successful move.
"Icebergs, Schmicebergs. Full ahead Mr. Lightoller!" Capt. Smith
Bad move. Very bad move. |
