"Helicopter" "Destroyer"
you tell every crew things like theirs is sneakiest or best vessel and then plan these scenarios because you won't pay them just like that if their life was that easy
As all russian things .... cheap cringe
Avengers at the battle of the Eastern Solomons? Nope! First combat action involving the Avengers was later at the Battle of Midway!
I have a question,,,,, why artic convoy’s ,,,,,,,,couldn’t they just transport over the Bering Strait?
the only ones that know what really happened were on the scorpion and obviously they aren't talking. all these theories are just that and most of them are unlikely or just plain fantasy. ed ss352 E/
"Let me show y'all how we did it back in my day"
The film being shown is from a movie about U-boats. It appears that Otto Klemperer (Hogan's Heroes) is portraying the U-boat captain.
My grandfather Harry F Dorley was a machinist mate at the sub base at Pearl He asked to go on a patrol and it was granted with all his sea bags and all his gear ready to go he got word that his wife got sick he was so mad all his stuff had to be unstoned But that was her final patrol they hit a mine all were lost
You can tell a lot of this was pulled straight from Wikipedia without reading or understanding the gear onboard. I can tell you for a fact, none of the radars mention in this video were installed on this battleship during the Korean war... They weren't invented for decades.
Tragic story of bravery and sorrow, thanks.
Why the clickbait titles? There was no mysterious threat. It was a mine.
I love how you talk about its dangerous duty and showing it attacking a fishing boat. A Chinese fishing boat. No worries. Thumbs 👍🏿 from me!
Why are people still bragging up the Zumwalt? The program is a failure, primarily because they used a proven failure of a design for the hull. That tumblehome was abandoned by every navy in the world more than 100 years ago, because it's crap. Hull architecture is well understood, there's no reason to go back 100 years to try salvaging a failure. Note that there are zero videos of Zumwalt navigating in heavy seas - the ship will roll over and die in sea state 9 conditions.
Albacore submarine in Portsmouth NH museum ? On water watched them coffer dam it in same sub? You can tour it kids love looking out of the periscope Oldest Ship yard in America Portsmouth naval shipyard couple miles aways Dry docks repairs building them tragety struck the uss Thresher when down in the 60 ez on sea trails the ship yard is technically in kittery maine
Wasnt Archerfish the submarine with the highest tonnage in WWII
It wasnt a unique armoured deck, all British carriers had armoured decks
Insane engineering.
For those who dont know, they're making a Doris Miller aircraft carrier. The only one not named after a president.
stolen carrier and I guess now pootin enjoys the karma or lets call it for what it is a moneypit! It will never leave port without at least 1-2 tugboats to follow it around!
To make a "fake" destroyer you need to do more than wrongly classify it. That's incredibly silly. "Oh, these aren't fighter planes on the deck, they're actually flying lifeboats. And these aren't guns, they're actually pez dispensers. In fact this isn't even a ship, it's highschool.
Naw .. Wikipedia is mostly false
This is a very weird video. The narrator sounds so earnest... almost as if it's true. He's nearly soiling his pants.😮
The video heading is quite misleading, as not once did I hear of when it gathered all its firepower for one epic shot!
Must have had the improved torpedoes, not the ones that circled back.
That's a fuking Aircraft Carrier
how do you know China's reaction? Did you interview them for this video? Source?
It wasn't a mystery, it was a mine :)
That was cool seeing Ward Bond.
Holy shit somebody dove in the water into a torpedo??????? Where is this guy's short story???
Lots of errors. USS Alabama BB-60 had the initial radar contact at the Philippine Sea
At 3;24 submarine is running backwards.
R.I.E.P. brave warriors!
I served with C. 2/327th Infantry 101st Airborne….She fired a few shells in our support. The Big guns were amazing .
I've always wondered why, at least to my limited knowledge about the situation, why no one in the Navy's ordnance division was either courtmartialed or otherwise faced serious charges for "dereliction of duty, over the torpedo scandal. How many US soldiers and sailors were killed directly or indirectly by ships that should have been artificial reefs early in the war?
Absolutely beautiful. This is true American power. Wow😊
@DarkSeas stop typing presenting incorrect/misleading info or I'm going to unsubscribe.
Your pronunciation is absolutely ATROCIOUS. Did you fail Engish class???
Music was too loud, had to play several times to understand.
I was on the beach in phan thiet. The first sergeant said, look guys the battle ship new Jersey. She turned her guns toward our firebase we were building. I felt the heat of the flames when it fired, them smoke from her barrels. I'm only a mile away. No movie could ever equal that moment in time.
Want to improve the quality of your scripts? Cut the number of adjectives by at least 80%.
And cut the volume of the background noise, aka music.
The chinese should be the last ones complaining. They lied about their first carrier as well. It was a russian wreck suposedly bought by a chinese businessman to be retrofitted into a hotel/casino or something, only for it then to be revealed that it was going to be restored and reactivated as an aircraft carrier for the P.L.A.N.
The USS Albacore (SS-218) was lost at sea Nov. 7, 1944, after striking a mine. In February 2024, naval historians confirmed the World War II submarine's wreck site off the coast of Hokkaido, Japan.
She was never stricken from U.S. Navy records. Her status was changed to: Eternal Patrol.
May God be with the lost souls they gave their life serving their country.
Taiho was to little to late.
It was a mine. There, saved you 14 minutes. Stop it with these click bait titles, it damages your channel.
I couldn't serve in a sub. My Dad was a Canadian Gunnery officer who volunteered for Korea. They said yes, but he would have to go in a tank. He didn't like the closed space either. Luckily for me, he didn't go
That one torpedo hit would not have sufficed to sink Taiho. She was able to resume and continue aircraft operations for some 5 or more hours after being hit.
So not really a mysterious threat. It struck a mine
