submarine September

@baxter9725 it doesn't catch any convoys. All the convoys will be rerouted away from it. And you have most of the Royal Navy already blocking its route to France. And once there, it just becomes a constant bomb Target for the RAF.

 @Paludion they were headed there because they were considered friendly refuge. Plus they may or may not have had extradition treaties with the allies.

@brendonbewersdorf986 there's nothing more you can do to that design. And you are talking about interrupting production.

Just crew. The rest is myth and speculation.

@Fluffinator129 USS Nimitz? In-service since 1975.

Submarine September continuing?

@Johndoe-jd It is effort and money spent on other projects. You need Polaris, far more than some Frankenstein battleship.

@joshthomasmoorenew she was sunk because she's a carrier. Not because of any bounty.
1
 @joshthomasmoorenew why would sinking one of the most notable Capital ships in the Royal Navy be strange? Sinking a carrier is a prime target.

@Johndoe-jd they would do none of the above. There's no need for additional battleships. Or a Nuclear Powered one.

@katana1430 that really makes no sense.

@thomasbailey2185 is it still primarily a ship-based channel. With limited aviation content. And the best float plane or flying boat? By what metric? They all do basically the same job. None is any more spectacular in performance. All have the same limitations as any other shipboard aircraft. And as for submarine applications? You have limitations on size, range, and the need to surface to launch. They provide a reconnaissance. But little payload capacity.

@Thirdbase9 the torpedoes are primarily and visually. Trying to fire from lower than Periscope depth really doesn't work. Nor are they really set to do radical changes in depth. Something like you Are describing has to wait till there are guided torpedoes.

@jbrwokyruges nope, hasn't done it yet....
1
Ditto
1
@joshthomasmoorenew I can find no actual reference to any such bounty.
1
@Thirdbase9 and you would set your torpedo at a depth to hit the destroyer. But you're not going to be any more than 60 ft. You are not sitting at like 300 ft firing torpedoes.

@katana1430 your efforts at disinformation are futile. It's basically set up for commerce raiding.
1
@jorisammerlaan how about the World War I sabotage of Black Tom Island?
1
@Thirdbase9 the channel does not allow links. And at last check, you are not my supervisor?
1
@Thirdbase9 guess what? It's an open forum. Sorry, you got a bug up your saddle.

@richardbennett1856 I think I'd rather spend money on people in North Carolina. You can't eat cruise missiles....🍽

@Blockio1999 you must be the guy who buys flood cars at auction?🤔
1
@youtubeminecraftwatcher6860 the basic answer to the question is; called USS Montana. Rather than trying to do what you are suggesting they would go with a clean sheet design.
1
@johnofnz The channel really doesn't do modern ships.
1
@mikecegelski1208 Yes.... the practice is known as windmilling. They used the thrust of the aircraft rather than a tug.

@somethinglikethat2176 there was no real extra effort to go after Ark Royal over anything else.
