Battleship Suicide: A Nazi Captain Was Tricked Into Killing His Warship The loss of the Graf Spee was a blow to the prestige of Hitler s small but expensive navy. Here s What You Need to Remember: Just before he put the gun to his head and pulled the trigger, the German officer penned a final note. For a captain with a sense of honor, it goes without saying that his personal fate cannot be separated from that of his ship, wrote Hans Langsdorff on December 19, 1939, in a hotel room in Buenos Aires. Langsdorff finished his letter to the Nazi ambassador to Argentina, lay down on a German battle flag, and shot himself. ....
Montana (SSN-794) was christened in a ceremony at Huntington Ingalls Industries (HII) Newport News Shipbuilding Division. Construction of the boat began in 2015, and the submarine is on schedule to be delivered to the U.S. Navy by the end of 2021. The submarine will be only the second U.S. Navy vessel named in honor of the Big Sky state – which is the fourth largest in size but is also the 8th least populous. Previously, only the Tennessee-class cruiser carried the name USS Montana (ACR-13), and while she escorted convoys during the First World War, the vessel was eventually renamed and reclassified as the USS Missoula (CA-13) in the reserve fleet. ....
Picture This, Literally: Merge a Submarine and a Battleship With the advent of nuclear power and the guided missile, the seemingly goofy idea of a heavy surface-attack submarine became an impressive and chilling reality. Here s What You Need to Remember: Navies around the world are arming their undersea forces with missiles filling the roles guns filled long ago shore bombardment, anti-ship, and anti-air. A century ago submarines presented as much of a challenge for naval war planners as drones do today. Like airborne and surface stealth decades later, underwater stealth was a game-changer but how to use it? Until the missile age, a wide variety of naval missions and vessels tried applying the submarine’s advantages to best use. From early on, planners envisioned submarines carrying out commerce raiding, minelaying, shore bombardment and intelligence collection besides the sub’s obvious role in fleet attack. ....
Here s What You Need to Remember: At 14:23, it happened. Yamato’s forward internal magazines detonated in a spectacular fireball. It was like a tactical nuclear weapon going off. In early 1945, the Imperial Japanese Navy made a difficult decision: it would sacrifice the largest, most powerful battleships ever built to protect Okinawa, the gateway to Japan’s Home Islands. The decision sealed the fate of the battleship Yamato and its crew, but ironically did nothing to actually protect the island from Allied invasion. The battleship Yamato was among the largest and most powerful battleships of all time. Yamato has reached nearly mythical status, a perfect example of Japan’s fascination with doomed, futile heroics. Built in 1937 at the Kure Naval Arsenal near Hiroshima, it was constructed in secrecy to avoid alarming the United States. Japan had recently withdrawn from the Washington Naval Treaty, which limited battleship tonnages, and was ....
