    Warships - Armchair Admirals ahoy!

    Since we have the aircraft thread and the tank thread here's the ship thread.


    USS Texas. A dreadnought battleship from 1912.


    KMS Admiral Graf Spee. A German "pocket battleship".


    SMS Konig. Imperial German dreadnought and flagship of the High Seas Fleet.


    Russian pre-dreadnought Oryol, was captured by the Japanese and renamed Iwami during the Russo-Japanese war.


    And of course the HMS Dreadnought, possibly the most important ship in the most important era for naval power.


    In case you haven't noticed I like the style of the dreadnought era ships.

    The beautiful USS Cole DDG-67. The real workhorse of the US Navy and the model of today's naval warfare. Armed with more than 90 Tomahawk missiles able to reach beyond 300 miles with a thousand pound warhead on each one, who the hell needs to see the enemy?

    I like the Yamato. Even though the Japanese didn't really do anything with it and it was basically rendered useless, it still looked cool as shit.





    What a beast.

    You live not 30 miles from one of the finest naval facilities in the world. AND YOU LINK PORTSMOUTH.

    -_- You must not have ever driven by Bremerton or seen a sub pull into Bangor. FOR SHAME DOGBEAST FOR SHAME.
