Nope it was intentional as the ship was cut in half and the captain didn’t realised as the bow sailed forwards after it was bisected as such no ‘abandon ship’ order was given that’s a reason why only 3 men survived. It was also probably sunk with a single shell as accounts from HMS Prince of Whales says after HMS Hood was bracketed hood turned to avoid the salvo but a shell struck its spine and a ‘gorgeous’ pink and yellow flame spewed from its hull then it fully detonated within minutes no trace of the Hood remained.

My grandfather was too young to join the Newfoundland Regiment so the found a way to England where he joined the Royal Navy. He was too young and was assigned below deck where no one wanted to be in an attack. He told me about shells punching neatly through bulkheads and severing seated men at the waste, and cleaning it up. His greatest source of pain was when another sailor stepped in for a tour he missed to keep him out of trouble. That ship would be lost. I think it was the battle for Bismarck but I can't be totally sure. He would just recall bits and pieces to everyone out of the blue and never speak of that particular thing again. It was up to the family to try and put them together. My grandmother, a British war bride, was sent to Wales at the start of the London blitz but was mistreated by the sponsor family. She made her way across the UK, collected her sister along the way, returned to London and they got caught out in an air raid. They actually saw a bomb bounce down a street past them and blow up in the bottom of a Dept store building. You could never make a movie to grasp what these folks went through.

Imagine the morale hit the sailors would have taken on Prince of Wales: You're escorting the pride of the British Navy, once the most powerful and feared sea force in the world that for centuries projected power globally through maritime dominance, and in mere minutes this beautiful flagship vessel, this SYMBOL, is obliterated catastrophically before your eyes by the Nazi war machine. This was 1941, the Blitz of England was well underway, Britain was getting blasted and pounded, their backs were against the wall, the situation semi-desperate, then to have that happen, it must have felt like the end of the world to those guys. ADD TO THAT, the enemy that just blew away the Hood...now you're its only target. is what just happened to them going to happen to you next?

HMS Prince of Wales was so new she still carried dockyard workers to finish calibrating the ships equipment. The Hood, in my opinion, is still the most beautiful capital ship of the line to ever be built. Her lines just flowed from stem to stern. Her low freeboard aft meant she was a wet ship in heavy seas but she is still gorgeous.

Bismarck really wasn’t a super ship. It was similarly armed and armoured to other contemporary ships, but was far larger in displacement. Their armour scheme was outdated, and largely effective against short range duels. The only reason it took so long to sink it after it’s rudder was knocked out was because it displaced so much water, not because it was some super weapon…

I never really understood Lutjens hesitation. Yes, he was ordered not to engage capital ships and focus on convoys, but the battle in the Denmark Straits was unavoidable. His SAG was shadowed by Norfolk and Suffolk with advanced radar and he couldn't evade the scouting ships or engage them. His only chance at evasion is after he clears the GIUK gap, so he was forced to go through PoW and Hood.

A real battleship is supposed to take hard hits that might have entered the magazines, the British battlecruisers could not resist big guns. Three blew up at Jutland, Hood blew up like just another second rate obsolete battlecruiser. They were not armoured to resist anything bigger than a cruiser’s guns, the Germans did not play the Jackie Fisher cruiser killing game after the Falklands. Hood and the obsolete Revenge/R class battleships should only have been used in secondary roles.

What wasn't mentioned in this clip is that Hood was a battlecruiser, not a battleship. Her deck armour in particular was never intended to face the heavy shells of a battleship's main guns. She was scheduled for upgrades to her armour, but these kept being postponed as she was repeatedly used for propaganda cruises in the late '30s. When the UK declared war on Germany in 1939, there was suddenly no time left. As for Prince of Wales and her four-gun turrets, I'm reminded of something that a martial-arts instructor once said to a friend of mine : if you haven't practiced it, you can't do it.

@@Ace-rp7vr ACKCHEWALLY, carriers were the prime target. The Japanese were just handed such a golden opportunity they weren't gonna call off the attack because the carriers were mia. And the second biggest tactical target was heavy cruisers. The Japanese command feared these more than the dated US battleships, as they knew it was more likely they'd be directly dealing with them in future surface engagements. Cruisers were better suited to be doing things like contesting invasions and forming 3-4 boat patrols, which is what the Japanese wanted to avoid. The us BB line at pearl harbor was slow, had slow aim, couldn't maneuver well etc. They were ww1 designs, and the Japanese already had the Musashi and Yamato on the way. 1 of those could have probably engaged 4-5 old us battleships, which was the entire point of Japan's design. Cruisers were more effective quick responders, and took enough building resources they were deemed higher value targets. The only people who wanted the thicc ships sunk were those concerned with the Japanese "press"(propaganda machine) coverage.

I wouldn't call the Bismarck the most advanced battleship of ww2, namely due to poor amour layouts (distributed armor) with everything being protected, just at a lower level compared to all or nothing schemes which, where only critical components where protected, drastically improved survivability, weight and speed. The First relatively modern ship with the AoN scheme was launched in 1912 with the Nevada class of Battleship. Another problem with the class is the lack of protection of the fire control antennas, for example after a few salvos Bismarck's main fire control antenna had been destroyed by vibrations from firing its guns, and so had to switch to secondary fire control antennas, reducing its firing speed and accuracy greatly. If this had been protected properly then Bismarck might've lasted slightly longer than it did.

@@vitalguillin1177 I wasn’t comparing the Bismarck and the Nevada directly, I was just stating the first use of AoN armour, these two ships have almost nothing similar. It is true that Germany advanced less compared to other nations between 1918-1933, but that is due to the Versailles treaty and German designers ignoring lessons learnt during major battles such as Jutland. You yourself mention vastly superior (in my opinion) ships designed during this period, such as the Dunkirque and the Iowa, both of which where designed during the same time period. I agree with you on the point that lots of innovation occurred during ww2, and on the unfair fight between Hood and Bismarck, however we can pin-point where certain innovations where made, mainly by their first use, and by their major adoption by navy’s.

Battlecruisers, typically those of the early 20th century that fought in the first world war were an evolutional dead end, but Hood was NOT a battlecruiser in the same mold as the WW1 invincible class. She had far heavier arms & armour than her predecesors, which was further upgraded while she was still being built in Glasgow due to the lessons learned at Jutland, and which brought her upto the same standard of weapons and armour as the Queen Elizabeth Battleships of the era ... but 8 knots faster!!! The fact the other 3 admiral class were cancelled was as much due to the fact that Hood was THE most expensive warship ever built at the time of her construction, and Britain had been bled dry by WW1, and could not afford the cost of completing another 3 "Admirals". The fact is that she was a ship of her time, a world beating fast battleship of the 1910s/20s that was never properly updated to keep her abreast of developments in gunnery over her life span due to her being CONSTANTLY in use for 20 years "flying the flag" for the British Empire, and when consequently the major refit that was scheduled for her later in 1941 was postponed by the breakout of the Bismarck, she was still a powerful but aging, dated ship whose "Achilles heel" was becoming all to apparent, and which through Bismarck's excellent gunnery, was exploited by a million to one shot.

The Admirals were cancelled because the British had time to design new clean paper ships rather the heavily modified Hood that was never truly a post jutland design. The difference between Hood and G3 design is night and day.

Usually the Revenge class is used as a comparison but they were cheaper and inferior to the Q Es. The Hood rear deck armour was not to battleship standards. Should have and ought to have actually didn’t do the job. The significantly modernised ‘fast battleship’ Renown was kept well out of the final fight.

@@JevansUK Did you make that up yourself or did someone lie to you? The post Jutland partial deck armour upgrades early in its _life_ are published and formed an inconsistent patchwork largely over the front half of the ship, the rear half deck armour addition was planned during the massive refit that the old ship needed but never got.
