Comments by "r baxter" (@rbaxter286) on "The Refit of HMS Hood - But what if she had survived?" video.
Survives, she'd have still been a complete waste of resources that could have FAR BETTER spent on RN escort carriers AND THE AIR ARM for them!! Sorry, the aftermath pretty much showed what would have happened to the Bismark REGARDLESS, with comparative minor loss of shipping. The U-boat menace was the REAL war loser. Thank former Newspaper Sensationalist Churchill for this and the Tirpitz waste of effort. (What demand for fast battleships?! In the minds of the battleship admirals and Churchill, but not in SANE strategists).

If she had survived ..., she'd have been sunk like Barham in the Med or sent on the B Team Pacific Late War RN Sandbox Force ..., she was never going not to be in service during the war until she plain wore out like Warspite ...
