  1. I love the marine law trials where they nitpick things like this. 😁

  3. Totally agree.🙂 And you would not believe the size of the internet hordes that shout "mission kill" when you point this to them. Regards

  4. Can we see a YouTUBE short of Drachinifel doing the Dr. Livesey Walk? Background, location, companions, and attire to your discretion. Smile for maximum effect 😁

  6.  @rohanthandi4903  because ships were no longer armoured against large gun shells. Weaker (modern) ships are now more vulnerable to pityful missiles. If the torpedo was obsolete, attack submarines would not have torpedoes. And yet they do. The Belgrano effed around and found out that torpedoes are FAR from obsolete. The fact that you are now attempting to qualify from torpedoes to "air launched" torpedoes means you are trying to generalize a particular case.

  7.  @rohanthandi4903  Ohhh no... against a "peer" adversary unmanned boats with explosives are better than "obsolete" torpedoes. But guess what? They strike at the water line... and let water IN

  8.  @rohanthandi4903  it didn't take long for the horde to arrive 😁

  9.  @88porpoise  it doesn't matter what let the water in, it only matter that guns can not let the water in.

  10.  @88porpoise  of course you can sink something with gun fire. That is not the point. But how long did it take? How many hits did it take? It is much more effective to sink something using torpedoes.

  11.  @rohanthandi4903  not the point. How many gunfire hits would it take to sink the "relic" of thr Belgrano? How easy was to sink it with "relic" torpedoes?

  12.  @88porpoise  sorry. Yes it can be compared. Just how many bombs did it take to sink Tirpitz? How big were those bombs? Yes, that can be compared to relic run of the mill torpedoes, two hits and you are done. Sometimes only one.

  13.  @88porpoise  once again... you conflate "torpedo bomber" and "aerial torpedo" with "torpedo" It's not going to work. Try again

  14.  @88porpoise  not the point The issue is that many many airplanes and bombers went to Tromso...and could not sink Tirpitz

  15.  @88porpoise  just let me know hpw many tries, flights and missions it took

  16.  @rohanthandi4903  please find out the type and mark of torpedo used. You will be surprised.

  17.  @rohanthandi4903  you bring examples of Tirpiz hiding in a fjord. Now you claim to judge what is acceptable. Go troll someone else.
