  1. ​ @elliottmcnear8516 it's been covered for years. Every year someone keeps coming up with the tank ammo versus ship thing.

  2. ​ @davidknowles2491 based on the sinking of the Britannic? I would say no to both of those. Lusitania cannot survive with that many compartments flooded. And the damage from a mine is similar to that of a torpedo for Titanic.

  3.  @stevevalley7835  I've looked at a video or two about the Britannic. Is suggested that the blast warped the hull. Which may have interfere with watertight doors closing. The portholes do seem to be an issue. But the captain attempting to make for land probably increased the water pressure coming in the vessel. So in the end, she has just as many flooded compartments. And is unable to stay afloat. That whole class just seems to be snake bit? Olympic, Titanic and Britannic.

  4. You wre trying to go back to the years and years of people trying to compare tanks to ships. The circumstances of tank ammunition design and ships doesn't carry over.

  7. ​ @RedXlV you have portable cranes on carriers capable of moving an aircraft.

  8.  @stevevalley7835  but the Britannic was built after Titanic. And with changes made to the design to increase watertight integrity.

  9.  @AndyorAndrew  don't you want gunpowder to explode rather than just burn?

  10.  @stevevalley7835  I know what your trying to say. I'm just not sure pouring gin on gunpowder is going to produce the effects as if it's dry? You want to have expansion of gases rather than just flames.🔥

  11. It makes no sense. The whole idea is Goofy. And Admiral King would never go for it.
