Re: Battleship Design Fun
As I implied in my other post, this class of naval rifle would easily qualify a vessel as a "super-battleship" if guns are used as the sole measuring criterion.
Re: Battleship Design Fun
Haven't we tromped over this topic time and again? Seriously the battleship is dead, an outmoded concept. You might as well talk about a modern suit of knight's armour, a laser-guided trebuchet, stealth Zeppelin bombers, modern sailing warships. Technology moves forward, methods of waging war and delivering destruction improve. What was once cutting edge becomes obsolete junk. Just as Sopwith Camels ain't coming back the battleship isn't going to either.

There's no such thing as "nothing left to draw" If you can down 10 pints and draw, you're doing alright by my standards

God's Blood
Can't you guys even stay on topic for once? Is there an attention deficit problem here. So yes, Hood is quite correct. If ever the Battleship ever had any support, it died the day the Prince of Wales was dispatched; therafter it could only survive with air cover, and for all the hype the last generation of Battleships hardly proved themselves in combat, being too expenisve to risk: Nuff said.
