    They should at least try to preserve her. As good of shape she's in she would make a great museum piece.

    • @MrThathurt1
      @MrThathurt1 10 років тому +5

      They did, about 20 years ago :) This report is quite old at this point, I believe they have cut her into sections to make her more easily observed by the public.

    That is very good news that it's being de-constructed in manner where the integrity can be restored in the future. I had visions of those museum exhibits of rare items that have been sectioned for display--essentially destroyed. Any relic saved from the scrapper is a good thing.

    You have to love the way the British say "Tomato Ketsup" with such a regal flair. Oh and to Speeddemon3, if it weren't for the "fucking Americans" during World War II, the world might be a very different place today. As we say in America today, don't freakin go there!

    @paulhunter123 Yea.. for 48 years it's surprisingly in good condition. Tho their could be a reason why it's intact, even the slightest damage to a u boat in the right area, could make it go down slowly but the submerge tanks are too damaged(based theory on the crew escaped).. yea, it's not worth sticking in, especially if you sink too low and.. water pressure, imagine crushing a beer can and being in it.

  • @PanzerAngriff
    @PanzerAngriff 16 років тому

    That's what I had envisioned too! But from what I hear, they are going to be doing a very percision job cutting her into sections. It's still bad, but atleast they will be able to put her back together once they get a bigger building ready. If they do, that is. And this way she will be MUCH easier to restore.

    No that´s a myth. The Mauser brothers said, that Springfield copied the action. Springfield said OK, if you think so sue us. But there was no international court, that was able to sue Springfield to pay royalties to the Mauser brothers. So the Americans used the action without paying anything.

    Springfield Armory paid Mauser for the rights to their action. In fact, they paid for the license during the time that the Springfield 1903 was being used to kill German during WW1.

  • @acoow
    @acoow 11 років тому

    Springfield's patent infringement was a U.S. court case and therefore does not require international court attention. Mauser Werke was paid and was satisfied with the license and penalty payment made to them. Since it was a matter between Springfield and Mauser Werke and Mauser was satisfied, your opinion is not reliant. Recent studies of both the German law firm representing Mauser and the US firm representing Springfield show the payments.
    In other words: Sie sind falsch.

    Well, either those people save her, or she is cut up for scrap. Although it is a shame that she is going to be cut up, atleast she will be cut in such a fashion she can be put back together in the future. They are cutting along the original lines in which she was constructed. She was VERY CLOSE to being COMPLETELY destroyed for scrap, mind you.

    How many World War 1 and World War 2 Subs are within Reach to be Raised ? We owe it to them and their Crews to retrieve them and out them in Museums for People of all time to understand what their crews went through as Sailors dedicated to their countries did for what the ythought was right. Each Sub is a Piece of History ans a Monument to what Humanity did to itself right or wrong.
    They each are History of the 20th Century

    All I'm sayying is they need to be critical of safety while researching technology, not technology and then safety. Communist and other installed govt's have pushed to hard wanting to be first to do this or that against other technological country's. Then mistakes are made that snowball into terrible disasters that have put thousands at risk and they pay for it. That's not arrogance my friend, that's just diligent thinking.

    Remember that it was never certain what was going to happen to any of the German's machinery after surrender.
    This might really piss you off - The Japanese Imperial Navy had half a dozen "super-subs" that actually carried 3 aircraft in a little hanger in front of the conning tower. I think it's been dubbed "The lost fleet". The fuckin Americans scuttled all of them before the Red Army could inspect them. Don't know why they were worried, the Russians can't build anything right.
