Hello, gottaname. I see that you have a presence online involving RC tanks and perhaps with warfare games (with which I am mostly unfamiliar). Dare I ask, how many tanks do you have?

Welcome to you from NJ, USA.

I watched something on YouTube about the Battle of the Denmark Straits.
Bismarck sunk HMS HOOD but I wondered what happened to HMS PRINCE OF WALES, which survived the battle.
Turns out she was sunk 6 months later by Japanese aircraft off Malaysia while trying to assist the British garrison in Singapore.

The Royal Navy showed to the World that battleships and cruisers could not survive without air cover by destroying the Italian Navy in Taranto harbour using carrier borne Fairy Swordfish,
The Japanese Navy took note of that to finesse their attack on the American Pacific fleet at Pearl Harbor so what were those in command thinking when HMS Prince of Wales and HMS Repulse were allowed to sail off the east coast of Malaya without air cover in 1941, Of course they were attacked and sunk by carrier borne aircraft..
