Just imagine if the sortie was at full strength. Bismarck, Tirpitz, Gneisenau, Scharnhorst, and Prinz Eugene you can come too. That would have led to an absolutely epic confrontation with the Royal Navy. Especially considering the US Navy was still on the sidelines pre-Pearl Harbor.

Research on the wreck of the Bismarck proved it was probably sunk by scuttling charges. Plus I doubt a single torpedo (especially a british one, they aren't as strong as say a Type 93) could cause enough damage The Bismarck was a big BB (though rather small compared to the Yamato-class cuties), but wasn't that good. The turtleback armour had it's flaw and the rudder design with two panels is rather fragile. Coupled with poor AA and gun aiming systems, the best part of the ship are the speed and the secondary batteries

Let me see... Questions like these often depends on the enviroments, or the effects of each side. But i'm gonna do it like this: Considering there are numerous ways to stop flooding on mordern day warships, I would say the Battleship. If the torpedo hit a boiler room ,and it was flooding, it would probably be sealed off from the rest of the ship. and therefor no chances of continuous flooding throughout the ship, causing it to float, hence survive.

@ptonpc

Most battleships of WW1 and WW2 era had some form of armour designed to protect against torpedo attacks. It was always a compromise between protection versus weight and bulk but it could usually mitigate if not completely protect against torpedoes. (It didn't normally extend to cover the bow or stern)

It is amazing how the Kriegsmarine managed bring so much tonnage to the bottom of the sea considering what they had to work with. And what they were up against.

And if spotted from the air...good luck. U-boat captains could not fart without being detected by sonars and other equipment. 3. Trying to squeeze raiding sortie trough British land, sea and air defences (and their allies) is like threading the needle with a 5cm thick rope. 4. Avoiding engagement was order of the day. Unless you like 5 on 1 odds. When cornered to a fight they were able to put up a serious fight (sinking the Hood, Barham, Ark Royal, Audacity, Avenger, Courageous, Glorious, numerous destroyers...) That is my point. Fight against odds.

Techpriest Navy war in WW2 took a lot of twists, U-boats start sinking ships, Royal Navy finds a way to detect them, U-boats builds a wolf pack, Royal Navy sends large fleets of destroyers with upgraded sensors, and Nazi build more U-boats.. Nazies really had a good advantage on the Atlantic but Hitler was never interested in sea warfare and he took minimum care of what was going on there. If they built more submarines and Brits didn't break the enigma then this war would have taken a different turn where Britain would surrender due to starvation.

I really enjoyed this episode! Here some (hopefully) constructive criticism though: While your maps are designed very well and full of detail, it is noticeable that they are getting increasingly dark. By that I mean the colors that used to really "pop out" in earlier videos, but are getting more and more muddy. It fits this video about WW2, but others? Compare the siege of Antiochia and the battle of Askalon, the latter ones colors are getting muddled together and it feels kind of bland. I don't know if anyone shares my criticism and it is absolutely your choice to make, but I at least wanted to throw this out there! =) Thank you for your work!

JordZz Gaming Different navy, as far as I'm aware, only the German navy referred to their ships as he with everyone else referring to their ships as she. Something to do with masculinity was the reason that Germany called their ships he, possibly because Germany is called Deutschland which translates to fatherland in English so they referred to their ships as he as a result. The Royal Navy and US navy refer to their ships as she and the Japanese navy was actually based on the Royal Navy pre WW1 as they bought the Kongo from Britain and built her sister ships under license in Japan. Most navies are based on the Royal Navy as the Royal Navy is the most successful navy in the world and ruled the waves for over 200 years until 1943-1944 when America took over. Therefore most navies including America probably copied Britains navy style just as South American navies copied the Royal Navy, the south American armies copied Prussia/Germany in organisation and dress style. Chile and Peru are a good example of this. This can be seen at commisioning ceremonies where people say things like ' god bless those who sail in her'.

le Beast yes. She was meant to have a much larger overhaul at the beginning of WW2, bearing in mind she was showing off British naval dominance for 20 years before the war and was horrendously outdated by the outbreak of war. Then need for new and improved King George V class ships outstripped the desire to take a functioning and prestigious ship out of the British Navy for expensive and time consuming refits. Interesting point is that due to her size many British people believed that Hood was invincible and it caused huge fear in the country when news of her sinking was announced.

When I read Denmark, I immediately remembered the Hood, Rest in pieces.

I never expected you to make a modern battle video! Great work Baz!

Documercial at its finest... and I'm not even mad. Great work... looking forward for more of these.

Oh hell yeah, you have my attention

"In May of nineteen forty-one the war had just begun The Germans had the biggest ship, they had the biggest guns The Bismarck was the fastest ship that ever sailed the sea On her deck were guns as big as steers and shells as big as trees" ~Johnny Horton, *Sink the Bismarck*

Biggest guns were on Nelson and Rodney

The graphic style and pace of this video is superb. I always enjoy your videos, but this one stands out.

I am a big fan and appreciate all this channel does!! Such details in history telling with amazing graphics!!

1:40 - easier and more to the point to say that "The Battle of the Atlantic" lasted through the entire war. British merchant shipping was torpedoed by U-boats on the first and the last day of WWII.

The best animation I've ever seen and I love it

Always a pleasure to see a new video from Baz. Love it. Keep up the great work!

This has to be one of the best visuals I've seen regarding this battle.

Great story telling skills Great animation skills Great topic Great video Great channel

Great comment

Two small mistakes I found in this excellent video 1. Hood was the biggest Battlecruiser of her era, the Yamato-class BB's were slightly longer and had a bigger displacement 2. In German a military operation is translated as 'Unternehmen'. An 'Operation' is a chirurgical one

1. Yes, but the Yamato was not launched until after WW2 had started so I don't think this was a mistake in the video 2. Indeed, and this was a point I was going to make. English speakers usually don't translate 'Rheinubung' so, to me, the real error was to use the German pronunciation of 'Operation' when the English one would have been appropriate. Although as you say 'Unternehmen' would have served just as well.

But Yamato had been commissioned into the IJN when Hood was still around. Before that she would have been. The devil lies in the details

Aye, but all the narrator of the video says of The Hood is that she was 'for a long time the biggest warship in the World'. He's not saying that she was at the time of the engagement in the Denmark Strait. :)

Yamato was launched at this time. So it was technically larger; it was just dockside been fitted out at the time.

just to point out the the difference between the big 4 Battleships/Battlecruisers of the different Navies in terms of date of Launch and there displacement. HMS Hood, Launched 1918 and commissioned 1920 with a displacement of 46,680 long tons (47,430 t), ISN Yamato Launched 1940 and commissioned 1941 with a displacement of 65,027 t (64,000 long tons), Bismarck Launched 1939 and commissioned 1940 with a displacement of 41,700 t (41,000 long tons), USS Iowa Launched around 1943 and commissioned 1943 with a displacement of 45,000 long tons (46,000 t) so from taking those dates you can see that HMS Hood was sailing around as the biggest of the 4 for about 20 years before the other 3 came onto the scene. In fact you could go one step further and conclude that without HMS Hood the other 3 probably wouldn't have been built in the way they were.

Very well done. Most videos I’ve seen just start with the Bismarck and Eugen leaving port. It was good to get some background on the operation before the breakout. Great graphics as well.👍🏻

The narrator is awesome. Great job as always BazBattles

Any Bazbattle involving any war in history is great

More "sea battles"!!!!!!!!!! These are literally the best sea battle videos on youtube and IMO the best BazBattles videos!!! LOVE the visualization

Amazing! As a child I read a novel called "Hunt for the Bismarck", this brings back memories. Also, congrats on being 99.8% accurate in pronouncing German names! No small feat I can tell you :)

Keeping in mind I'm a native Dutch speaker and that German is only my 4th language... "Operation Rheinübung" was a tiny bit off in the last syllable I think, but I'd have a hard time describing how it's off in text.

This video was perfect, the information, animation, narration... Well done! I love the story of the Bismarck, I grew up listening to Johnny Horton who has a song called "Sink the Bismarck" that tells the story. Thanks for the vid!

Where is the Swastika on the Nazi flag? Because it WAS a Nazi regime not the German navy of WW1!
