It is a bit crazy that a pre-Dreadnaught was still fighting up to the day before WW2 ended! That would be like seeing an Iowa class BB in the Iraq War. 😁
Well an Iowa class was in the Iraq war, served as shore bombardment firing its main and secondary batteries as well as missles
@@Drod0064 I think he’s joking
I see what you did there. 😂
Man if only Schlesien didn’t strike that mine, we may have been able keep a second pre-dreadnought battleship around.
DonPafific Bobcat9er i doubt it i don't think the allies would have allowed that and there is no way the soviets would
@@nordic5628 Well, Mikasa was also initially seized and later given back by the USA. But yeah. The Soviets would probably have not allowed it. They could have take her even, since, like Lützow (Ex-Deutschland), she sank in very shallow water and was used as an Anti Aircraft platform. But she was scrapped in the late fourties instead.
Schleswig Holstein btw. sunk also in shallow water, and was purposed for testing up into the sixties.
But the mine just wanted to be friends!!
If they didn’t save the SMS Goeben then they wouldn’t of saved a pre-dreadnought
Pre-WW1 and WW1 ships were really beautiful. Loving the pre-dreadnoughts :D
unless they were french,
eaglerocks123 or the circular Russians
Arent they fascinating ?
circular russian ships and old pre dreadnought French battleships gives me nightmares everyday when isee them
Ships that bristle with guns look so badass. Missiles and drones may have replaced guns, but these old ships' appearance are still more intimidating and cooler looking.
My grandfather clock has this class painted on the moon dial.
Love the pre dreadnoughts!
Unless they're French....
@@T3hderk87 I love the French once. They showcase creativity and an innovative spirit of few equals.
Sarcasm aside, they were truly horrendous indeed.
Schleswig-Holstein has the history of being the ship that fired the first shots of the Polish invasion on Sept. 1, 1939.
It's been a great six years Drach.
I believe I’ve already voiced my affection for Imperial Germany’s battleships, and I’ll say now that I’m also a fan of the later pre-dreadnought designs. (Mikasa of Tsushima Straights fame is one of my favorite warships of the modern era) However, after watching this video, I’ve been introduced to a class of ship that I knew almost nothing about, but am now quite fond of. The Deutschland-class pre-dreadnoughts aren’t the toughest or hardest hitting, and like their cousins from other nations, they’re a bit on the tubby side. But dash it all, they’ve got *character*!
(Translation: Never again will we see ships that carry this much firepower, yet can still be described as “cute”.)
vastly overachieving expectations. a well built class of ships for their day.
Niiiice
I really wanted to know more about these ships, and it was kinda hard to find info in them as they were drowned out by the incredibly famous pocket battleships bearing the same name. I am so glad I found this video though, as it thought me everything I wanted to know about these lovely ships.
Nice
Thx a lot for this awesome Video! It is just remarkable that a pre dreadnought crusier ship from zur "Deutschland" Class like the SMS Schleswig Holstein saw service till 1966 as a russian target ship. Although outdatet at beginning in 1906 it was used as a warship in WW1 and also fired the very first shells onto the Polish Island "Westernplatte" at september 1st 1939 at 4:45 ! An hour befor ju87 divebomber attacked Polish citys. After WW2 the Schleswwig Holstein was taken by the sovjets and renamed into "Borodino". There the ship saw service as a training ship and later on as a target. It was send to the bottom in august 1966 with an estimated service time of almost exact 60 Years! Incredible
I love these videos, and I also realize you may have addressed this in the past couple of years since this video came out.
But just to help with your German pronunciation:
POMM-ern
SHLEZ-vig HOL-shtein
SHLEZ-yen
BROWN-shvaig
Curious case of German battleships: almost first to be built, last to be sunk. Not bad for a class dubbed the "5 minute ships" three decades before they were finally sunk...
It is questionable if they could ever be regarded as first line units.
Great guide. I would like to see more Royal Navy Pre-Dreadnoughts like the King Edward VII class.
Thanks for making this! It was my suggestion from ages ago, keep up the good work.
Glad you like it!
Great video, as always. So glad you referred to the ships properly, as feminine.
**Wait just a minute sir..... Did I hear you refer to these ships as "she"? How dare you presumtively attach your "hetero-normative gender pronouns" to these ships, without first asking which gender pronoun they prefer!?! Do you realize how many people you've "triggered" by committing this "patriarchal" sin of sins!?! The answer sir, is zero!**
(That's because the types of people who tend to be triggered by such things, probably aren't much interested in factual history, let alone military history.....) LOL, {Sarcasm, of course}
TBH you’ve only really made yourself look like an arsehole here.
Interesting that the Schleswig Holstein was in service at the beginning of WW2 meaning there were actually four Deutschland class ships in service with the German navy at the time.
Schleswig-Holstein? Sounds familiar...oh well, I'm sure she was to play no major role outside of World War 1....
Poland: I beg to differ
That extra watertight compartment certainly didn't help Pommern, at Jutland.
How about more Canadian ships? HMCS Magnificent, Bonaventure, Ontario and Quebec? Love the videos! Very informative!
Can do :)
Great video. However, a minor flaw: Pommern is not pronounced „PomMERN“, but rather „POMmern“.
rly nis I had a feeling I might get some the German names a bit wrong :(
Drachinifel all of them were well-pronounced excluding Pommern, so don‘t worry. Good video. Also, with the anniversary of the Battle Of Midway coming up, do you plan on making a special that includes maybe ships like Hiryu, or Soryu? Ships that are generally not as well-known.
rly nis hadn't thought of that but it's a good idea.
I find it interesting, that a Deutschland class battleship remained flagship until the commissioning of Friedrich der Grosse, when there were Nassau and Helgoland class Dreadnoughts available. Were none of these ships built with flag facilities?
Topic suggestion:
HMS New Zealand (ship or class or both?)
HMS Queen Mary
Hi. Can you give us Beatty's LYON from Jutland battle?
Marco A Fonseca will do
Lion
One question occured to me in wathching these vieos. For the longest time, battlecriser, battleships, and dreadnoughts all included torpedo tubes as part of the armaments. Are thre any instances where any of these ships, in any navy, actually fired torpedos at an enemy? My impression is that including torpedos in the armament was a It's what we've always done" matter, with no thought about whether it still served a useful purpose.
Can you add USS Wasp CV-7 to the list?
Alunita Inghinala sure
Can’t find your video on the Nelson and Rodney, with the three turrets all forward. Got a link? Been through 40 videos so far, and haven’t even started the Drydock series yet.
It's coming in the new year.
Good vid... but someonemight want to work on their German names pronounciations..
you need to work on your German ship name pronunciation.
Nice
