Historical ships in the game World of Warships 👉 wo.ws/3MrVWY7
On the brink of World War II, the emergence of effective radar systems, as well as the development of submarines and carrier-borne aviation, drastically changed the nature of naval warfare. Even the most innovative doctrines became hopelessly obsolete on the battlefields of the new war.
In this video, we'll tell you about the navies of the leading naval powers of that time - their composition, number of ships, and the ratio of the main ship types, such as battleships, cruisers, destroyers, aircraft carriers, and submarines.

Yorktown was also badly damaged in the battle of the Coral Sea. Thanks to a herculean effort they were able to patch it up quickly enough to arrive at the battle of Midway. Tactically Coral Sea was a Japanese victory, but they lost a carrier that would be hard for them to replace whereas the U.S. would be able to crank out lots of carriers before the end of the war so strategically it was a U.S. victory.

Most important thing about Battle of Coral Sea was that the 5th Japanese carriers fleet Shokaku and Zuikaku are heavily damaged on ship and air crew. Therefore they were absence during the battle of Midway, both carrier together carry almost 150 air craft, with these large amount of air craft add into the Japanese aid, the battle of Mid Way might end up differently. Not just Japanese fleet has more air cover and splitting damage against American bomber, but MOST IMPORTANT, Nagumo will not make the mistake of rearming the Torpedo bomber into land based bomb due to the fact Mid Way based could have been wipe out by the first bombing run with the add on of extra bomber from 5th carrier division. In conclusion, Japanese slightly win the battle of Coral sea based on the weight of unit lose, but in strategy, it is the total victory of America because they ruin the Japanese invasion force sent to attack Australia and causing two of the key carriers Shokaku and Zuikaku to be absence for the up coming Mid Way battle.

@@Melior_Traiano The supply lines were long but it was not the factor that stopped the German advance, it was the rainy season and mud more than anything else.

The mud would not have been a factor though if the armor from Army Group Center was not diverted south and wasted almost 3 weeks of good weather. By the time it was given back and directed towards Moscow again, the rain started and slowed the advance to a slow crawl, including the supplies.

@Kpt_Scharnhorst
@Kpt_Scharnhorst 2 года назад
Well ... let's put it that way. The Bismarck was the most powerful ship in the world in her time. She destroyed the flagship of the Royal Navy after her 5th volley (by the explosion of the front ammunition chamber). The Prince of Wales was badly damaged and then returned. The Royal Navy then dispatched 65 ships (I think he said it) to hunt the Bismarck. When she was located, she was also attacked directly. From hammerheads. So these are fighter planes. The problem was that the Bismarck's air defense specialized in modern aircraft. Hammerheads were biplanes from WWI. So the air defense was not very effective. A torpedo hit made the Bismarck incapable of maneuvering -> she could only go in circles. When the British came, the Bismarck was shrouded in fog. It is worth mentioning that, according to eyewitness reports, the team was afraid of the Bismarck, despite the overwhelming numbers. On the morning of May 27, 1941, the Bismarck sank after heavy fire.
@Kpt_Scharnhorst
@Kpt_Scharnhorst 2 года назад
What I'm saying is that the Bismarck not only existed ... no, it also sank and badly damaged the flagship of the Royal Navy, the HMS Hood and the pride of the Royal Navy, the HMS Prince of Wales. Unfortunately, the captain of the Bismarck did really damn stupid things, for example announcing the position of the Bismarck. I'm German myself and I think it's a shame that the Bismarck has sunk. Not because we might otherwise have continued to distribute at sea, but because the Bismarck was a beautiful ship.

Along with this “monster” it had a main armament of the strong 128mm 5 in KwK 44 gun/l-55. It could carry 68 rounds. The secondary armament was a 75mm 3 in KwK 44 gun L/-55 to put that into size, the maus’s secondary armament was nearly as big as a m4 shermans main armament, it also had a 7.92MM mg 34 MG It was the first tank to use a electric engine, and a partial diesel engine, it could go 20 mph, which was impressive for a 197 tonne monster, it could also fire from a distance of 100 miles.

Actually, at that time, the buzz in Washington DC and across the USN was that we should build 100 carriers. It was this sentiment that pulled steel away from the BBs on the ways. Even the talent left to build CVs, CVLs and CEs. CVLs were popular because they could be built in yards just too small for the big stuff. They also seemed 'right-sized' for USMC operations where it was assumed that the CVLs would support enduring bombing campaigns while the fleet was off at the Big Battle. It never quite worked out that way. Once it was plain that the CVLs could operate hand-and-glove with the CVs -- well then -- that's where they'll be slotted.

Churchill openly claimed the Battle of the Atlantic as the key to the war. Canada had taken over the lion's share of that struggle. The amount of attacks that never happened is unfortunately an almost impossible stat. After the war, tacticians agreed with the Canadian concept that keeping submarines away from a convoy was much more effective, than hunting and sinking them. (Something that was only possible because of breaking their radio codes and so knowing exactly where they were.)

I might have missed something here, but the US had six carriers at the start of WWII: Lexington, Saratoga, and Enterprise in the Pacific (though Saratoga was just finishing a long-delayed refit, something that would become a theme), and three in the Atlantic: Ranger, Yorktown, and Hornet. Also, the USN unofficially joined the Battle of the Atlantic in mid-1941, when the Kriegsmarine decided they really didn’t care who was escorting convoys, and started shooting at both RN and USN escorts, and the USN started shooting back.

[Edit. Given people are apparently confused by this I mean the Norwegian campaign] - Russian ships contributed very little to the Arctic convoys, a few destroyers as support - And British/Commonwealth sailors were treated very badly when they arrived. - Britain actually declared war just hours after the Japanese invaded Malaya, not after PoW was sunk. - Not entirely fair to just remove the French fleet, the Allies and Vichy saw several naval clashes. Though I did like that this video highlight that the RN had to defend three oceans at once, when the pre-war plan was for France to contain Italy while the UK kept fleets for Germany and Japan (instead the Far Eastern fleet was transfered to the Med).

It had ships from Royal Canadian, Royal Australian and Royal New Zealand Navies. The US Navy gave it the designation of Task Force 37 then 57 depending which US Fleet it was attached to. The last VC awarded in WW2 was to a RCN pilot who was flying from one of the HM carriers if I recall correctly.

The heavy cruiser lost by the IJN at Midway was NOT a part of the group you listed as a part of the battle. It was from Kondo's invasion force; the IJN MIkuma. The two Heavy cruisers in the Kido Butai were the IJN Tone and IJN Chikuma.
@jedimasterdraco6950
@jedimasterdraco6950 6 месяцев назад
And those two were part of the carrier element of the fleet owing to their designed purpose. Unlike in the USN where parts of each carrier's air wing were designated for scouting and fighting, the Japanese air wings were purely seen as fighting forces, so in order to provide scouts, the Tone-class carried an abundance of aircraft for this role. And this typically meant Japan's scouting forces were relatively small and there was an extra layer of bureaucratic nonsense that needed to be gotten through before sightings could be relayed to the carrier commander. Which really bit Japan in the ass at Midway.

@@g.t.richardson6311 A quick wiki crawl told me that a single scout went off from Akagi and Kaga each, five from Tone and Chikuma (one of which launched half an hour late and incidentally was the one that found the American carriers), and Haruna contributed it's spotting plane. Contrast this eight plane scouting group with the fact that there were 31 PBY floatplanes alone stationed at Midway. And that American carrier doctrine had four squadrons, one of fighters, one of torpedo bombers, and two of dive bombers; one of the dive bomber squadrons typically carried a lighter load, but was focused on scouting, launching in pairs prior to a battle.

Erm let’s be straight, the Royal Canadian and Royal Australian Navy’s should be ranked well before any mention of the USSR when it comes to WW2 lmao. USSRs fleet was outdated, old 12”dreadnoughts, no carriers and a handful of cruisers. The RAN and RCN by wars end had a modern core of light fleet carriers and decent 6” cruisers along with shot tonnes of destroyers and escorts. Both navies also did more in my opinion. The USSRs contribution even to the artic convoys wasn’t even that much and they just wasted a good R type BB the British loaned them. It was in such a sorry state they instantly scrapped it when it came back (it hadn’t even see combat in USSR service).

The Red Navy's ONLY significant contribution to the war was when the Baltic fleet shelled the advancing Germans just outside Leningrad -- and a tad further west at the entrance to the gulf. Fleeing Odessa and Sevastopol pretty much covers the Reds working in the Black Sea. IIRC the Red navy developed both the 85mm and 130mm guns. The latter being a significant factor in the Vietnam war. (The 130mm rifle is obviously a one-up over the dual action 5"-- 38 USN gun.)

The Royal Navy had been continously subjected to pressure from the Regia Marina and Kriegsmarine. It's surprisingly remarkable that they remained so active throughout the war. US naval building industry gets almost all attention, which overshadow the also impressive effort from Great Britain with their re-arming programme. Pre-war, they planned to lay down more capital ships than any other navies, including the US Navy. Not until late 1942 did they truly lost the title of being the most powerful fleet in the world.

A big difference of relevance is that the axis forces could never use their navies to support each other or redeploy it like the royal navy. The italians were basically trapped in the mediterrainian and could never leave while the germans alone were no match for the britsh home fleet. And there is also the often ignored fuel situation on the axis size forcing them to massively scale down fleet operations, especially on the italina fleet, from summer 1941 onwards. The big ships could often only be refueld every 3-6 months on the axis side while the Royal navy had fuel to spend like its nothing.

@@bayern1806 This simply is not true. The British Empire was alone between the fall of France and start of Barbarossa. Operation Sea-Lion failed because of RAF supremacy in the Battle of Britain and from that point on the British efforts focused on doing whatever necessary to prevent the German forces from getting sufficient oil supplies. Oil was, ultimately, the key to the war. Germany simply did not have enough of it to sustain their military, due to a combination of economic autarky and British blockades. The only major source of oil for the Germans was the Romanian oil fields and their crude oil production. However, to highlight how small the Romanian oil production was, they produced in the whole of 1941 what the US could produce in a single week in Texas. The British knew they would win the war if they simply waited for the Germans to run out of oil. This was a major reason for the African campaign, and was also the reason why the British just sat there after the Battle of Britain instead of immediately launching an invasion of France or Italy. The Germans realised the British strategy was to just starve them out (of oil) and so invaded the Soviet Union in 1941, one of the primary objectives being to control the Soviet oil fields in Baku and the Caucuses. This, of course, ended in failure and is the reason why Stalingrad was the decisive battle of the war. By the end of the war, the Germans were so desperate for oil that they couldn’t even afford to taxi planes out onto runways, instead relying on horses to do this job. So no, Germany could not ‘1v1’ anyone. Britain alone could have and would have won the war. They were winning the war, which is precisely why the Axis high command desperately launched Barbarossa in 1941. German military capability was massively overrated because of their early successes in France and Poland and because of how far they initially pushed in the Soviet Union (which, btw, was still short of their expectations). The reality is that there is too much focus on the tactical side of things but not enough focus on the greater picture - that the German military was on the verge of economic (oil) collapse from day 1. You should watch the video TIK history made on this subject. It is called something along the lines of ‘The main reason Germany lost WW2 - oil’.
