Yeah, but even after taking 9 more torpedos including bigger ship based weapons and almost 200 shells from main guns she still did not sink.

@aristosachaion_ It would be nice if historical records were preserved correctly.

It is clear that British ships were not very well designed against torpedo attacks - especially new PoW performed poorly. One has to note these were air dropped weapons - that were much smaller then ship based much feared long lance. Air cover not being asked for is a mystery. Maybe old commanders circa WWI did not yet realize air power was important.
