Only issue I see for this being a drydock question is: It'll take longer to read out than most questions take to answer lol. Maybe "Could you explain the process of painting a battleship please?" - would have been enough 😂

The point was, force Z had next to none. If they had, and given the ships amazing ability to dodge the torpedoes that were launched on target. It's very possible they may have managed to evade the initial attack. Which could very well have changed the tactical dynamic, given they were on an intercept course with a inferior Japanese fleet. Though my memory could be failing me there. I'm sure it was a lot of Japanese cruisers and the Kongos? Could be wrong. Because of the lack of tracer. The torpedoes were launched without the need for the pilots to evade as much. The comparison to anything the USN had happen isn't really relevant. Comparing apples and oranges.
