In the months following Pearl Harbor, the Imperial Japanese Navy conducted operations at sea, threatening British Royal Navy dominance in the area.
The most dangerous moment of the war, and the one which caused me the greatest alarm, was when the Japanese fleet was heading for Ceylon and the naval base there. The capture of Ceylon, the consequent control of the Indian Ocean, and the possibility at the same time of a German conquest of Egypt would have closed the ring and the future would have been black.
- Prime Minister Winston Churchill, April 1942
March 31, 1942, Japan had attacked Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, her forces had overrun Hong Kong, Malaya, Singapore, the Dutch East Indies, and Burma. Now the Imperial Japanese Navy and Army were heating up for an assault on India, the jewel in the British imperial crown.

@Karagianis 2 дня назад

You'd never guess by looking at them, but the Walrus was built by Supermarine, the same company that built the spitfire, at the SAME TIME From 1938 to 1944 both were buing built at the same time! The design's only 3 years older than the spitfire, from the same designer, R.J.Mitchel. In fact, the Walrus was a much more typical Supermarine aircraft. They were named super MARINE for a reason, their bread and butter was flyingboats. The Spitfire was one of a handful of land based aircraft they ever built.

@darriusdias 2 дня назад

I believe a lot of the Spitfire's development was also influenced by their Schneider Cup winning seaplane designs.

@eliott.6997 2 дня назад

This is absolutely true! Even the Walrus and its predecessor, the Seagull, are distant relatives of one of Mitchel's earlier raceplane design, the Supermarine Sea Lion. These themselves are precursors to the cantilever monoplane racers of the Supermarine S. series, the most famous being the S.6b which won the trophy outright, and also was the first plane to break past 400mph in level flight... EIGHT years before World War II... mental!

@olivierspencer9694 День назад

Incredible that the Walrus was a 'pusher' and still used in WWII. I wonder what the thinking was in creating a 'pusher' design in the 1930s when virtually every other flying boat / seaplane would have been a 'puller'.

@Karagianis 20 часов назад

@@olivierspencer9694 It was less common, but it wasn't the only pusher flyingboat in the 1930s, not many still in service by ww2 though. Maybe you could count the Dornier 18 as another, but only half (it was push-pull with 2 engines in a single nacelle) The Walrus was also one of very few flyingboats that could be launched by catapult! Catapult aircraft more normally being floatplanes.

Going max speed with Torpedo planes will usually make the fish run in front of the target and miss!

@jeffreyestahl 2 дня назад

A tip to everyone - one trick to follow is to mark the current location of a group, then allow it to move for 15-30 minutes to detetermine its base course. (remember the center of the group's icon is the location of the group) Then observe the overall speed of the group. Unless using proportional speeds on the strategic map: Medium = 15 kn. Fast = 20 kn. Very Fast = 25 kn. DDs only = 30 kn. +1 if the group is IJN. If using proportional speed, the strategic speed of the group = 0.75 x the speed of the slowest ship in the group. Doing all this will allow using the distance tool to map out where the group will be for several hours, allowing more concentration for interception. When moving to the tactical map, the actual course of the group is +/- 30º of the base course measured on the strategic map. If you don't see the group on the strategic map, don't fret. If you're close (i.e. within 25 nm), entering tactical will 'jump' your planes or ships nearer to the enemy if they're in range. Pause, zoom out, and check the circle of the tactical map. If you're off-center, you've definitely run into something. Start time, spot the enemy, then measure distance and bearing from the center of the tactical map circle. Then back on the strategic map, measure out the same distance and bearing the location of your friendly group - mark that spot with the enemy group's icon and repeat as above. These tricks will help find, predict the destination of, and concentrate responding forces to massively kick the AI's heinie.

If you aren't already in the business of making tutorial videos, you should be. This is useful stuff.

@jeffreyestahl День назад

@@dylandarnell3657 One of the things I miss in the current game is the ability to launch a night airstrike. I used to excel at tracking AI carrier groups, launching airstrikes with the intent of them arriving after sunset (knowing the AI CAP would have gone to bed already), then torpedoing the formation with massive torp bomber strikes in formation mode. Lots of destruction. ;) I'm actually happy just providing tips in the comments sections. I seriously doubt any informative video I'd made would be much fun. Unless people draw enjoyment listening to a guy muttering to himself analyzing a situation on the map. Not to mention, my job keeps me VERY busy. I even have a bad habit of working on weekends. Wolf's gotten exceptionally good at cinematic videos over the years. I truly enjoy those. However, the one problem with cinematic videos is they aren't very educational, so I chose to step in a bit.

@foreverpinkf.7603 День назад

@anzaca1 2 дня назад

I'd wager that, to get out of AA range, stay low. Naval AA guns struggle with targets hugging the water.

@_fruitnveg День назад

You'd be better off treating skip bombing similar to torpedo attacks. You can drop early and still hit as the bombs skip across the surface to hit the target, but you cannot drop too late.

@BellaZuikaku4785 2 дня назад

12:40 It’s better you attack your the merchants either from bow or stern since it gives you more of a chance to hit the target then broadside attacks. Broadside should mostly be torpedo strikes or naval clashes

@velesquad4253 День назад

Thanks For The Tip! I always Do Skip Bombing from Broadside with bombers and Like Some of Bomb skip into water but When Hit The Ship many of the skip Is dud only like 5% of it explode and if it was, that fatal blows to the ship

@BellaZuikaku4785 День назад

This tactic is even used in both Pacific and Atlantic Fleet. It’s better to go for the length of the ship than its side. If you attack from the side, the target is wide but smaller. Attack bow or stern head on, you get a better chance to hit the target and do some damage on it. The target is longer and you can guarantee a good hit

I think this every time I watch a War on the Sea episode but I reckon micro managing certain things in this game is completely fine. Managing the aircraft and manually firing torpedoes from your ships and submarines is so much better because watching you tell your ships to launch torpedoes only for them to fire them off in the completely wrong direction with an 80% solution is just painful to watch and not fun at all!!

I do what those seaplane tenders can do. We're lucky they didn't launch any F1Ms or A6M2-Ns because that would have been an issue.

@buckduane1991 2 дня назад

Seeing that one Fubuki being damaged, not moving, the Walruses may have had a chance level bombing it… and I wonder if going max speed with torpedoes increases the dud chance by “damaging the trigger” when it hits the water. Every time I thought “Drop! Drop! Drop!” you waited two or three seconds, and your bombs went over the target… lol. May have had better luck putting four planes into a diamond or two in trail and let them AI skip bomb today with your timing being off. We all have off days.

You get an " A Plus " for effort Wolfpack! Great video, thank you very much 😊

@dylandarnell3657 День назад

27:00: I think what's happening here is that the game uses a list structure to keep track of what ships are in a given formation (hence them being numbered 1-10), and the AI isn't smart enough to rearrange the list when it takes losses, so the formation gets rearranged nonsensically. For example, that Fūbuki-class DD you hit last episode has gone from position 6 (port-side flank) to position 4 (on the starboard side of the second row), since you sunk 2 of the ships ahead of it, but it's still "behind" 2 other DDs and the seaplane tender, and "ahead" of the other 3 DDs. This can be a good way to crack open a large formation - sink a softer low-numbered target to pull a more valuable target out of its protective formation (e.g., from position 5, in the middle, to position 4, on the edge), or get escort ships bunched up & out of position.

Mark XII, initially at 150 knots control in the air was unreliable, later fitted with the mark XV tail and strengthened to handle launch speeds of 250 to 270 knots. Main torpedo for the first half of the war. Mark XV, drop speed up to 270 knots but it took time to actually make the entire torpedo strong enough Mark XVII, under trial at end of war, 350 knots drop speed. USN Mark 13, pre war 110 knots from 50 feet, by 1944 "high speed" from 1,000 feet, end war 410 knots from 2,400 feet. IJN Type 91, early war optimum launch 180 knots from 100 metres but up to 250/260 knots from 300 metres, in 1943 up to 300 knots, in 1944 up to 400 knots Germany, F5 pre war 75 knots from 15 to 25 metres, in 1942 120/130 knots from 30/40 metres but 150 knots caused no serious problems.

@OtherWorldExplorers 4 часа назад

@@velesquad4253 Having less CP is just like having less hit points. It's not a true factor of AI or tactics. You ever notice how the enemy just scatters when you do a first contact with him. Whether by air or by sea. No cohesive counterattack. No rushing or destroyers in with a protective torpedo screen. Followed up by the heavy hitters lagging further behind being farther out of range and less likely to be hit. That's a standard naval tactic. Instead let's just give more hit points and have everybody blindly rush in at weird directions. No cohesive fire for instance, taking out either the lead ship or the largest ship until it is gone. Usually they pick on some small ship that's insignificant to the battle.... Anyways thanks for answering but I still don't see the tactics. Making something more numerous or have more hit points is not a factor of AI, it reflects lazy ideas. Like lazy writing for bad movies. Heck classic doom has more AI than this game does. It'll even go after those who caused friendly fire.... Still, I have to admit it's damn fun to watch. Cheers
