    The Mikasa battleship had cost Japan a 6% of the country’s overall annual budget, and at the time of her construction, she was the most powerful ship in the world. Mikasa was never defeated in battle, and also was part of one of the most dramatic episodes in the history of the Russian Navy - the Battle of Tsushima.
    Naval Legends is a series about the construction, service, and daring deeds of legendary 20th-century ships.

    During the Battle of Tsushima, Ensign Yamamoto served aboard the Armored Cruiser Nisshin, which was part of the Mikasa’s screen.
    Yamamoto saw the close up tactics of Admiral Togo and above all; the need for surprise in battle. It’s hard to think that both Togo and Isoroku were the most notable admirals of the Combined Fleet.

    Mikasa park is right next to Fleet Activities (FLEACT), Yokosuka, where I served (active duty) for three years & as a civilian for six years. Mikasa park, which is the area you see in the video (off her port side), has small concerts, often during the summer months. Forward of the ship, you can see a portion of FLEACT, Yokosuka. I miss Japan (lived there for 12 years).
    Lol! I used to work with Kazou (the guy around the 5:40 mark). I worked public affairs on Kitty Hawk & FLEACT Yokosuka Public Affairs. He would coordinate with us for tours of certain things & we would accompany him on tours. He used to translate for us, sometimes, when we had Japanese tour groups. He is a cool, laid-back dude.

    Two points to add.
    1. It was Chester Nimitz who did the main part of the job to restore Mikasa after WW2. He admired Admiral Togo so much that he didn't want to see Mikasa being used as a dance hall.
    2. Admiral Togo in his old age became a
    stumbling stone in IJN. While most of the officers at the Navy Department including Isoroku Yamamoto were strongly for maintaining somehow good relationship with UK and US, some officers, extreme nationalists, used Togo and his honor to justify their idea. Togo in those days was already detached from up-to-date reality of the world and became influence to belittle the importance of the relationship among IJN. This eventually led Japan to Pearl Harbour attack.

    Japan was able to win this Naval War just because their country was right next to the Yellow Sea and Korea and that gave them a bid more time than Russia and also The anglo-japanese pact of 1903 gave Japan a huge help🤔!!!

    Interesting fact, future Admiral Isuroku Yamamoto served during the battle of Tsushima, where he was wounded and lost two fingers as a result, fortune would spare him the loss of a 3rd finger which would have barred him from reenlistment in the navy.
    This fact would come to haunt the allies 20 years later.
    As for the British, Japanese alliance, after the Washington Naval Treaty Japan was forced to not renew its alliance with Britain as one of the key conditions on the treaty that was pushed by the American delegation, the Americans had viewed Japan as a naval rival after the Japanese victory at Tsushima, and they were very keen to see an end to this strategic alliance as a means of further isolating Japan and thus keeping them out of the American sphere of influence in the Pacific.

    • @jrd33
      @jrd33 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      It really wasn't. It's just a slightly tweaked Majestic class, which is pretty much the standard pre-dreadnought of its time. Britain built 9 Majestics for itself, and then built 8 Formidable and London class battleships, which were slightly larger. Nothing wrong with Mikasa, it was a good ship, but as soon as it was completed, better ships were already being built.

    For some reason this video always reminds me of the battlecruiser hmas Australia, the only capital ship to serve in the Australian Navy, there was a massive push to preserve here after WW1, but unlike the mikasa , it failed and she was scuttled off Sydney heads in 1924, to comply with the terms of the Washington Treaty. In my opinion this was a big mistake as many Aussies including myself would have paid good money to explore the pride of the Australian navy during WW1.

    Really enjoyed watching this piece & learning about this incredible warship which was constructed by UK for the IJN at the turn of the 20th century. This ship's mechanicals & weapons were build based on the average UK sailor's strength...So the IJN sailor had to forced on a high protein diet to build muscle?!?
    The "magazine explosion" was an accident I assume...but it did happen on Sept 11th - 1905...Sept 11th strikes again if this is correct.

    Many of present Mikasa's details are re-use of those of former Chile's battleship " which was demolished in Japan in 1958. The battleship, completed as HMS Canada in 1915 at Armstrong Whitworth, contained a lot of replaceable parts for derelict Mikasa.

    • @WeissVogel
      @WeissVogel ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes. I think there was also a story where the Japanese were presented with the Mikasa’s original blueprints as a guide to the restoration. It turned out they already kept the parts that were stripped away after the war.
