A sight never to be seen again the RN at its best.👍
I recognise one ship.
Technology, move on , you’re living is the passed.
In the opening wide view, there are both Nelson class battleships present plus at least 2 Iron Dukes in the distance. At 50secs a D class cruiser is seen sailing out. Both Iron Dukes are shown underway. The Iron Duke battleship shown in splendid close up sailing by from 1.50 is probably the Benbow (Its nameplate on the quarterdeck superstructure is indistinct but seems to say Benbow).
Britain 🇬🇧
HMS Renown both Nelson class there amongst others. An Impressive sight to say the least.
Easy to tell the Nelson Class.
Iron Duke class from 1:10
During those days England still possess the most powerful navy in the world.thanks.
One could argue that the us navy was close, if not ahead. Both relied heavily on WW1 vintage, since the treaty limitations.
Heres one.
What do you call Bismarck sinking HMS Hood?
A hole in one
Why they wrote England everywhere instead of Britain ? 🇬🇧
Because 80 years ago England was also the same as saying Britain. Many Americans still say that to this day.
@@dulls8475 Scotland and N.Ireland matter 🇬🇧
