Oh wow! A british ship that didn't end with 'Sold for scrap'
Love it! :D
She wasn't scrapped, but she was still sold on. Its just that she was too stubborn to die and lasted long enough for sentimentality to save her!
If I remember correctly this lady predates the American Civil War ironclads Monitor and Virginia by just a bit and has the advantage of being a true seagoing armored ship where the American ships were limited pretty much to coastal waters.
Sea story … when my ship, USS Nassau visited Portsmouth England in 1992 I got my first good look at this lady. None of my Intelligence Specialists had any idea what she was or her significance. They've done an excellent job of restoring and preserving her.
Ll
When Warrior was berthed at Pembroke Dock as an oil pontoon in the 1970s security was very lax and on occasion I and some mates snuck into the grounds and through a concrete tunnel and aboard the deserted hulk.
She was a great playground and a fascinating ship at that point forgotten by history, except for us.
I've had the pleasure of visiting the HMS Warrior after she became a museum ship, and was lucky enough to go aboard when there was literally no other visitors to be found. We got a full Keel o masts tour and it was an amazing experience.
I've been aboard her twice at her current dock. She may not be as historically significant as the nearby HMS Victory but she definitely has her own charm. What I always take away is how much nicer she is from a crew standpoint than a first rate from less than a century before. This would have been a comparative ship of luxury for her officers and crew of the day.
I Knew her then as well when we had a mooring at Hobs Point!!!
@Peter Rye this is true. In fact it was still much the case when I visited aboard the WWII era HMS Belfast, town class cruiser and HMS Cavalier, C Class destroyer.
Similar memories sailing alongside opposite Burton ferry!
It sure is a shame HMS Dreadnought wasn't preserved.
Which one?
@@akriegguardsman 1906
Warrior is beautiful. Dreadnought, not so much.
Never knew HMS Warrior was only preserved in the last few decades after almost a century of neglect.
Testament to the victorian age construction of the hull. Old iron not modern steel, and yet lasted longer than most would expect.
Refit carried out in hartlepool then moved to current home
Let’s hope that the politicians can realize the value of keeping history alive.
@@grahamr4916 sadly not.
Or at least ONE dreadnought would have been preserved, if not Warspite then the Queen Elizabeth ought to have been retained. No such luck...
The neglect actually saved her because they forgot to scrap her
From New Zealand, it was a privilege to visit Portsmouth, we did make a ship for you guys in cica 1900, HMS New Zealand, at the time our population of under 1million did well to make you a small dreadnought for Jutland.
She's a beauty and she's dressed in the most gorgeous uniform. Going aboard her in 1999 was like an absolute dream come true for a Victorian navy fetishist like myself; her gundeck was as big as a ballroom. Even those few pieces outside of the citadel weren't too much of a worry, because there was no guarantee that they'd have been hit by anything even if she ever had seen battle. (Anyway, the ironclads at the Bombardment of Alexandria were hit several times by heavy pieces, including those 10-inch guns at Ras el-Tin, and they did alright.)
My fondest memory of her though was the last time I took my late Nan on a day trip, on 25th September 2013:
Nan had an infamous fear of the sea, so I had *finally* persuaded her that a day excursion aboard PS Waverley would be just the thing to cure her of it (It was either that, or the trip up the 'Flying Doughnut' - the now dismantled Weymouth Eye observation tower - which I'd threatened her with).
Anyway, after I'd convinced her that, in the event of anything, such as flooding / sinking, happening - which it *wouldn't* - the captain would simply turn her about and calmly beach Waverley and we'd all have drinks while waiting to go ashore from the not-sinking ship, and she wouldn't even get her feet wet, Nan agreed. (With some reservation).
Come the day of the sailing, we got to Weymouth ferry terminal, boarded the handsome paddle steamer... and waited. Then we had to disembark, because her boiler was giving trouble.
Anyway, a week later, it was the 25th and we got to go again. A trouble-free voyage along the Dorset coast, across Christchurch Bay,, round Hurn castle and into the Solent we steamed.
When we steamed into Portsmouth Harbour, we were treated to glorious up-close views of Warrior, as we steamed slowly across her magnificently-decorated stern, and then alongside the brand-new HMS Duncan, due to be commissioned the very next day. Even Nan was impressed by it all.
(On the way back, several of us swore that Waverley was doing about 17 knots out of the Solent with the tide behind her.)
And that was the last time I took nan out for a visit beyond Weymouth.
Thanks, HMS Warrior and all those who've worked on bringing her back and maintaining her; you helped to make a perfect memory.
Excellent video thanks! HMS Warrior is definitely worth a visit. I was there on a very cold day & after a fascinating tour of HMS Victory was one of a handful of people aboard Warrior. The staff at the museum know their stuff and are happy to answer questions.
The Warrior is the true gem in the dockyard, and ought to be so much more appreciated.
oh good,...the old girl is still afloat, makes me sentimental^^
She also has a cafe on board and is next to HMS Portsmouth base still flies the red ensign and is within sight of HMS victory worth a visit
Upon hearing of her final fate i found myself smiling. From the moment her luck turned for the better from the worst i nodded. "Good. Good! People had a sudden rush of big brain and respectfully preserved some history."
Portsmouth Naval dockyard well worth a visit if you are visiting the UK (Warrior, Victory, Mary Rose etc). Easy train from London Waterloo to Portsmouth Harbour and a short walk make it a doable day trip
Don't forget hms dolphin and explosion they even have a ww1 monitor.
Nope added with the twinned museums at gosport it's a long weekend trip
@@solarsatan9000 agreed, too much to see for a day trip. Also the DDay museum on the promenade...the area is oozing with history.
Not a day trip surely!
@@gunner678 there is also a very nice aviation museum in the neighbouring city of Southampton call the silent sky museum it may look small from the outside but it's worth a visit
Shogun 2 FotS introduced me to this ship.
So this is where "if you get hit where it matters, it doesn't matter. If you get hit where it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter." started.
Been there, seen that - and she is impressive for her time :)
Sadly, she was overshadowed by a visiting US-Aircraft carrier group (especially the Arleigh-Burke-Class destroyer that entered the harbor was an impressive sight!), not to mention those new Daring-Class destroyers that are in port in Portsmouth (I only saw one of them while I was there, but still...impressive ships!)
You literally saw the evolution of naval warfare of the last 150~ years in a nutshell.
Except there were no dreadnought battleships to fill the gap unless the Iowa class were present with the American fleet?
Overshadowed? Most certainly not!
I am very lucky that my first visit to Warrior was when she was still in Pembroke Dock in 1979 (I was onboard HMS Dee tied up alongside), where she had been maintained as a floating jetty since 1929, so I could truly appreciate my next visit once she'd arrived in Portsmouth after the outstanding work undertaken in Hartlepool. I believe there is a reason we have been fortunate enough to end up with trilogy completing the development from Mary Rose through Victory to Warrior. Warrior still has an open, spacious gundeck and main deck, unlike all the subsequent turreted ships. Therefore, she remained of flexible use long after her successors were only worth scrap. Then the Washington Treaty scrapped so many ships that the price fell and Warrior was not even attractive to scrap if it still had a use, hence her move to Pembroke Dock.
I was a young sea cadet when I first went on-board warrior. This was being restored in my hometown, Hartlepool even to my untrained eye you could see the quantum leap in technology that typifies the Royal Navy.
With the recent refurb on Warrior I'd highly recommend having another look, considering the fact that Jackie Fisher himself was a gunnery officer aboard!
Had a wonderful day two years ago with my brother, a retired RN surgeon, touring Victory and Warrior. They have done amazing work of restoring and maintaining these vessels.
Done by the skilled lads in Hartlepool
What’s even more wonderful is that, unlike the poor Victory, the Warrior has her masts and rigging.
How fitting that this review of a ground-breaking warship should have within it the announcement of a ground-breaking new Q&A..the now hugely successful Drydock.
Glad to hear she was restored. I hope to get a chance to visit her one day......
Its nice to see a happy ending for a RN ship, not something that is very common.
Well worth a visit, you can wander around, play with the replica guns etc! When I visited the guides on board made a point of saying how much of the hull is original, "unlike the Victory"! I didn't realise until recently that she had a sister ship, the Black Prince, sadly she was scrapped.
Currently having it's stern repaired when thats finished people can actully get married on her
If you thought the HMS Captain at 7:49 looked rather interesting, there is obviously a Drachinifel-video on her.
HMS Captain - Guide 079 - ua-cam.com/video/NofUhqh-S7U/v-deo.html
I love the photo displayed when drach said "a response was indicated". Lol
We flew half way around the world to get to England and then the train ride from London to go to Portsmouth to see this place
I will remember this day trip until I loose my mind
It was my bucket day of my life time to be able to walk on these boats and also see the Mary rose 🌹
I recommend it to go and do it
I would do it again if I could it was truly amazing and we are so lucky for them to still be around
My only regret was we didn’t have time to see the submarine 👍👍👍
When I was in Portsmouth back in my late teens/early twenties and I had a nice walk around her, quite a large ship, also went across the harbour and viewed the Sub museum when I had the time.
This was this ship that started by interest in naval history, I stood on her deck as an 8 year old as she was being restored in Hartlepool, I used to pester my grandfather to take me on the tour every school holiday, he took me down the day she left for Portsmouth to see her off.🙁
A great presentation, and your audio has indeed improved! I would love to visit Portsmouth and see the floating museum they have there.
Excellent video on a fascinating ship, keep them up.
awesome videos, I really enjoy them. thank you
I love your videos and I can't wait for the next naval review one.
Q&A: I was wondering if you ever plan on adding more days to review ships or if you will keep only uploading on Saturdays
Excellent video of one of my favourite ships.
Thank you for your videos please keep them coming.
Comment Request - USS New Ironsides - Civil War ironclad
Always nice to see a video on my favourite feature of my home city ☺️
Another great video, keep it up mate! I remember when you barely had 100 subs, now, more than 2k. Well done!
Thanks for sticking around! :)
2 years on: 197k
HMS Captain - Thank you, I've been looking for that ship for ... forty years.
awesome vid I've been on that ship and I loved it then went to the Char Bar to cook my own food
I'm amazed we still have this ship
UK: Has a ship of extremely high historical and cultural value
UK Government: And I took that personally *yeets off to the scrapyard*
I think the hard lesson they learned was that a ship made of iron will conduct cold and heat much better than the old wooden ships as they found out with the SS Great Britain which would become stiflingly hot in equatorial climates. Ventilation was critical.
Thank you for this video. You provided more information than I had been able to find. Context about why she was build, and how soon made obsolete, was also good to know.
My great-great Grandfather served on the Warrior at one point while she was in the reserve fleet. Not quite sure when.
I played on the hulk before restoration as a child in Hartlepool.
I love her and have been on her many times the cafe on board is very good
she was refitted in Hartlepool and I saw her in many states during the 80s
In 1863, _Warrior_ had a new Gunnery Lieutenant assigned, a man by the name John Fisher, Jackie to his friends.
Awesome video, as always. Q&A: How would Warrior fared against the USS Monitor had Great Britain come into the American Civil War on the side of the Confederacy, particularly against a squadron of Monitors?
Q&A: I'd really love to see a video of the USS Constitution, comparing her to contemporary frigates (and even ships of the line) of the Royal and French Navies. From what I've read, though we were no real threat to British naval superiority due to the sheer numbers of your ships, the few frigates we did have greatly outclassed the RN frigates, and perhaps even the razees built to counter them.
Q&A: HMS Victory, please.
The USS Monitor was a very, very slow ship and at best a coastal defender. Her hull was far too low, making her susceptible to taking on water washing over the deck (she foundered in a storm off the coast of North Carolina).The HMS Warrior was of a superior design, save for the turret, which was the only notable advantage the American ship had.
"Out of the left field", got a good chuckle out of that. Though I must say, I don't know any cricket terms , misused or otherwise
Q&A: Review of the USS Nautilus SSN-571
Beautiful Ship !!!
How about making a video presenting HMS Edinburgh? I remember reding about this barave ship in the 80-ties in polish magazinr 'Morze' ('the Sea' literaly). The article contains detailed information about operation of salvage gold from her wreck. I think She's worth to mention...
Thats a beautiful ship. so glad it has survived.
I like the cutaway of the "Wellington?" with steam power at the start. I'd like to see a guide on it and a similar ship. Mighty 3 decker with steam.
Duke of Wellington, 240' 6000t 131 guns 780shp 1852
Q&A ... Can you please do another vidio covering a specific battle or operations, I absolutely love some of your longer vidio like fire and ice, but mostly ice ... World war 1 but obviously the choice is up to you. Greatly appreciated cheers ! :)
Very interesting. Can you do a chat about HMS Leander and her class of frigate?
If we are looking at the oldest ironclad ships in service, then I would suggest a video or two about the USS Monitor and the CSS Virginia, the first two ironclads to fight each other in naval history.
The audio quality has increased over the past couple of weeks.
Excellent video. It's a shame we don't have a battle ship in preservation. Very short sighted and penny pinching.
@Drachinifel for QandA Please do HMS Gannet (1878) preserved at Chatham, Kent in England.
What is that mad experimenter image 1:57 from? It was used in one of my chem classes ages back and I've been trying to track it down for ages.
In case you're still curious 9 months later, I think it's from the movie "Metropolis," but I could be wrong.
Built by the forerunner to West ham United football club Thames Iron works, there nickname and badge, the hat. hammers is not as many people think a play on words but signifies the tools used in riveting
Q&A - Can you tell us about the books and other resources you use for researching your videos?
I'm glad the Warrior wasn't lost to history (unlike the USS Enterprise).
Q&A - Why after the County and York classes did the Royal Navy abandon 8" gun heavy cruisers building large light cruisers like the Town class instead?
Thank you for this video. I came originally from Portsmouth and it invoked a wave of nostalgia.
Poor Britain, Sic transit gloria mundi!
primarily rate of fire. Several light cruisers can overwhelm a ship faster than heavy cruisers with 8inch guns.
LEX Maximaguy87 - Thank you for that information. Was it a wise decision in the light of wartime experience?
probably yes......the brits used light cruisers too a good effect. especially hunt for the bismarck and sinking the scharnhorst.
the washington naval treaty also had an effect as you can build more 6inch gun cruisers then 8 inch ones with the tonnage allowed for cruisers and the empire needed more hulls
Because Jackie fisher.
My wife’s father served on a ship called the Glory. He sadly passed away without telling us anything of his time on that ship and we know nothing apart from some old photos found in a drawer. Is it s ship you might be interested in talking about.
It is such an elegant ship
Why couldn't you mention that she was refitted in Hartlepool before being taken to Portsmouth?
As a Pooley, I only clicked on it to see the hometown
Could you do a video about a ship an uncle of mine served on: the USS Astoria?
Walked the stretch she was docked at many a time and my explorer leaders have told me all about her time here
Outstanding.
Non-military....but Great Eastern???
Weren't the problems with the breech of the guns due to them not having 2 breeches (they were removable) so that during an action one could always cool one of them down in a bucket of water?
Were there any major surface ship vs ship actionf between RN and Japanese Navy vessels during WWII
If you hearty mate's of the sea like old ships such as galleons, schooners, sloops and briggs you might want to look into a game called Atlas on pc xbox 1 and ps4... You can be captain of your own ships... Build them how you wish, arm them and crew them. It's alot of fun. Worth looking into indeed.
Could you do a guide on the Panserskib (Armoured ship) Rolf Krake of the Royal Danish Navy?
Sure
How about the RMS Great Britain? Also the clipper Cutty Sark.
It would be cool if you could do a walk though of warier like you did with victory
This left me wanting to know more about the first screw-powered warship, USS _Princeton._ Didn't start an arms race, but the engineer who designed her (John Ericsson) later designed the ironclad USS _Monitor._
Great that HMS Warrior is now being preserved alongside HMS Victory.
However a terrible shame that most iconic Royal Navy ships were just scrapped. HMS Dreadnought, Warspite, Rodney, King George V, Vanguard and the later Ark Royal (R09) - why oh why didn't anyone see the need to save these great ships for future generations to see for real (even worn out and damaged as some were - so much the better to understand their lives and history).
Q&A how were destroyer torpedo tubes reloaded ? ive tried to find out my self and cant find anything
Lion and Tiger class battlecruisers or the design studies leading to hms dreadnought please?
Q&A: What exactly does the term “battleship“ stand for? Does it only refer to the style of capital ships that were introduced with the French. Dunkerque class, or is it more of a general term for large warships that use „conventional“ weapons?
Battleships were the ships built to serve in a fleet’s line-of-battle; hence the name. There is no universal standard for classifying this or that ship as a battleship-kind of a case of “you’ll know it when you see it”--but a few benchmarks generally apply: large ocean-going warships designed to outfight any other surface combatant; greater weight than any other surface combatants in a fleet (yes, HMS Hood was a freak here); a main battery of all large-caliber guns in multiple rotating turrets; armored to survive hits from other guns of comparable size; and extremely expensive. The term came into standard and official use in the late 19th century, well before the 1930’s Dunkirque class. There are no battleships currently in service.
American Made so it’s the general term for capital ships sine the 19th century and the classification for capital ships during WWII? Weird, the navy always seemed so exact when it came to classes of warships
Um, "capital ship" is even less distinct--that term includes all “major” warships. Battleships are the big gun-armed ships built to slug it out against an enemy battle fleet. I think you're right that navies through WW2 were more predictable in their classification habits. But "battleship" is comparatively easy; if you have a taste for chaos look up frigate, the cruiser gap, and best of all, Japanese helicopter destroyers.
He already did a good reply to the same question. The name is an abbreviation from "line of battle" based on ships of the line and liner was becoming the common term for the civilian cruise ships we know today
Such a beautiful ship. To my view she’s the main attraction at Portsmouth and not the Victory.
Really i thought the largest attraction was the ferry port
i remember her at Hartlepool in the 70s
Do the questions have to be related to "naval stuff"? What's a hypotenuse? 😁
The trigger to build the Gloire and the Warrior was the battle of Sinope in 1853. At this time the Russians and the US Americans were the most advanced fleets in shell firing. Sinope was the first time shells were used in battle, and the Russians under Admiral Nakhimov had blown the Turks out of the water, which brought France and Britain into the conflict and caused the Crimean war.
It's a beautiful ship my picture is a photo I took of warrior the last time I was at Portsmouth
I would like to see an episode on the U.S.S. Constitution
Nice
I walk past this all of the time walking to work and never knew the story or significance of it
I am a keen supporter of HMS Warrior but it was a big mistake not to have the ship on show with the guns run out rather than in board making the ship look like an East Indiaman mechantman. Also, the ship should have had ballast on board to bring the waterline down. Other than that it is an excellent renovation indeed!
So, which end of the gun shell goes into, again?
more ships up to the dreadnaughts !
Do you think we will ever see a submarine carrier with small submarines used as a the airplane is from aircraft carriers?
Yey do yamato and potemkin
She's on of the reasons the Confederates were so keen for the UK to enter the civil war.
True mate I recently read a book about the civil war and this was in the book.
will it be possible to do a program on HMS Plover minelayer as she had a very long life and laid thousands of mines in WW2
No one has mentioned that the ship was built by the iron workers of West Ham.... Who formed a works football team.
Interesting...
Any good?
LOL. Ever heard of PSV?
Tell me more about this turreted sailships.
I back this
The HMS Warrior was built 350 years after the Royal Demak warship
(Tomé Pires)
The ship could actually achieve a speed of eighteen knots if the crew rowed 🚣, and nineteen & one-half knots if the crew got out & pushed ⛵
twenty with tailwind.
