      no, it wasn't the swordfish was a 1930s era Biplane utilizing a powerplant far more powerful than anything available to the engineers in the 1920s no different than any other navy at the time. The UK, US, and Japan utilized 1930s era biplanes until the mid to late 1930s its important to note the era from 1935-1950 was some of the fastest eras of aviation development with planes being made obsolelescent months after they enter service

    • @mikereger1186

      It was so slow that the fuses on the aa guns shells would set off too soon, missing the stringbags. Not much consolation...

    • @oldgysgt
      @oldgysgt 5 років тому +1

      Just think of what the brave British Naval flight crews of the Swordfish could have achieved if that had been given modern up to date aircraft, and not open cockpit bi-plains with fixed landing gear. And the poor Westland Wyvern was developed at a time when prop-fighters were a thing of the past and no one was dropping torpedoes from fixed wing aircraft anymore. What bunch of "Desk Joke" Admirals would send men out to fight in outdated equipment like this?

  • @andrewandpat3321
    @andrewandpat3321 6 років тому +22

    Just to note that your Historical Consultant, Yuriy Kruchkov, is a bit off at 14:32. The reason for the British R&D lag in naval aviation was not the Admiralty but the Air Ministry, who had total control of the Fleet Air Arm from 1924 to May 1939 when the Admiralty took direct control over the FAA. Consequently the FAA was competing for resources with other branches of the Royal Air Force during the period of modernisation and re-armament, and the results of that are well known. I can't provide a source, but I recall that land-based aircraft would provide modern fighter coverage to the Fleet as all action was expected to take place near land bases. A bureaucratic handicap that no other nation had to endure. When the war did start it was a case of making do with what they had, however obsolete.

    • @peterflitcroft9756
      @peterflitcroft9756 4 роки тому

      That seems to be a recurring theme with British naval aviation. When the Invincible class were built in the 70's they were classed as 'Through deck cruisers'. Fortunately sense prevailed and the Sea Harrier was developed.

      Well, you’re looking at Swordfish, Fulmars, Skuas, Rocs, Seafires, Corsairs, Fireflies and finally Sea Furies, which should utterly kick arse as the final generation of piston fighters.
      Apart from Ark Royal, most Royal Navy fleet carriers sacrificed hangar space for armoured decks - which was helpful against the Japanese. But this was made up for with deck parking systems later on, allowing a larger complement of aircraft to be carried.

    Ely, Eugene Burton was the first. Ely joined the Curtiss Exhibition Team and performed successful exhibition flights at numerous events.
    In 1910, made the first successful unassisted airplane takeoff from the wooden deck of the USS Birmingham.
    In 1911 he made the first successful airplane landing on the USS Pennsylvania, the first ship to be equipped with a landing deck and arresting system.

  • @JohnRodriguesPhotographer
    @JohnRodriguesPhotographer 4 роки тому +1

    A history is only good if it covers failures and successes. Where is the Fairey Albacore and a few others? Why not speak of the shortcomings of land planes converted for carrier use? In particular range. The Westland Wyvern was a robust plane but had problems. 1) Range, The Python turbine burned excessive fuel. 2) Was difficult to throttle, so ran at constant speed. Aircraft speed was controlled by the pitch of the counter rotating propellers. The video was good, but incomplete

  • @KevinSmith-qi5yn
    @KevinSmith-qi5yn 6 років тому +4

    It's always weird when they say a number converted to metric from it's original specification. They have some odd number convention as a result. For instance 272 kg instead of 600 lbs.

  • @Edax_Royeaux

    I noticed this in the movie Dunkirk, but I couldn't figure it out, why do these British Supermarines have a french flag on the tail?

    • @williammagoffin9324
      @williammagoffin9324 6 років тому +4

      Its actually not French but its inspired by them. The French used Blue-White-Red rudder stripes on their aircraft as national markings, the RAF during the battle of France adopted the same idea with a fin flash of their national colors Red-White-Blue frequently with a smaller white stripe (today they either don't use the white stripe at all or make it equal to the other stripes so it will look like a backwards French flag).

    • @riyoriyote
      @riyoriyote 6 років тому +2

      It's not a French flag, it's a fin flash. That particular version of the UK one just happens to look like a French flag in reverse.

    • @Edax_Royeaux
      @Edax_Royeaux 6 років тому

      Yeah, but on the starboard side, it's a french flag. When I watched Dunkirk, I thought it was related to flying over France or something.

    • @riyoriyote
      @riyoriyote 6 років тому +2

      Ah, sorry, I should say it's basically displayed front of the plane to the back, such that on the left side it would look like the back of the flag being flown. So only on the opposite side it would appear reversed.
      As read the french fin (rudder) flash looks more like their flag (blue white red). Whereas the UK one used here is red white blue.

I noticed quite recently that Air Marshal Dowding has gone on record as saying that the Admiralty got precisely the types which it specified and demanded."

    all the wehraboos crying about bismarck, sorry but it sunk and so did tirpitz and there is no museum made after it unlike yamato which had a huge museum dedicated to it.
    i'd much like to see the USS North Carolina and do a match up of who would win in a fight with Bismarck if america in the war since NC was the most powerful allied warship in service at that time.
    myself, well after careful analysis i've concluded NC would win, her Armor and Armament design is far more suited to the Long range plunging fire exchanges of ww2, while Bismarck's armor and armament is more suited to the outdated short range slaughter fests of ww1.
    infact bismarck is massively overrated in regards to it's fighting capability and performance at the Denmark straight, we all know it 1 shot Hood, but hoods deck was massively i'll suited to time delay fuses that bismarck was throwing and it was a very lucky hit.
    But what people don't know is the skirmish she had with Prince of wales and how it for a time was losing the fight and the damage that POW did massively led to bismarcks demise before POW eventually gave up at the loss of hood and didn't risk fighting a 2v1 and losing.
    POW rear gun turret jammed and was out of action and the other 2 were working but not very well(also massively contributed to why she retreated) so bismarck has a huge advantage,
    Bismarck scored 7 hits on POW, 4x 8inch shells and 3x 15inch shells
    an 8 and a 14 of them hit the rear smoke stacks and boats doing little damage,
    an 8 and a 14 hit the bridge and fire control director but did little damage,
    2x 8 hit the rear starboard stern above the water line causing a bit of flooding but little damage overall
    and 1 15 hit below POW belt and just a few feet above the keel, luckily it was a dud otherwise this hit could have been devastating.
    so the damage was minimal, she took was really only electrical damage and a tiny bit of flooding and a tiny list to starboard, now lets look at the damage POW did to Bismarck
    POW scored 3 14inch hits on Bismarck,
    1 hit a sea plane doing little to no damage
    but 1 hit below bismarcks armor belt, this did lots of damage, it penetrated, exploded and sent shrapnel into the Port Turbo generator room and forward port steam boiler flooding the Turbo generator room entirely and half flooding the boiler room causing a decnt
    9.5 degree list to port and reduced power,
    but the 3rd hit was even worse, it hit the massive fuel tank stored in the bow of the ship and caused Bismarck to lose over 1,500 tons of oil to sea water contamination and flooded over 2000 tons of sea water and caused the bow to lean by 3 degrees, thats the bow 5-6 meters below it's normal water line!!!, the forward flooding was so severe that no matter how much they counter flooded the stern they couldn't get it back to normal.
    by the end she lost 2 boilers, a turbo generator, 1500 tons of fuel and gained well over 3000 tons of sea water and was still slightly tilting forward massively limiting her options weather or not to return to port and reducing her top speed of 30kts to 26-27.
    so despite POW landing half the hits, she did far more damage.

      We had been using it before what it is saying in the video, perhaps they are just suggesting that balloons were the predecessor of the aircraft. There are plenty of records of the British military using balloons in the 19th century, and there were plenty of nations using them too, both at that time and before the USA was even founded!
      I believe the first use was in China centuries ago, but I don't know enough detail about stuff that far back

      shock wave By the time HMS Rodney and HMS King George V finished firing, the Bismarck was a wreck, on fire and with only one way to go. I've never really seen what is so great about destroying your own ship. The Germans were very addicted to it, though. The HSF was scuttled in Scapa Flow, Graf Spee in S. America and most of the German Navy not sunk in port were scuttled as a final act shewing how impotent the GN had become.
