The name of the most famous battleship in the world

Construction began on January 25, 1915.

1936-1939 Prestige was completely refitted.

On 12 December 1939, he sailed to the South Atlantic to attack the German Panzer Spee, which was trapped in Montevideo by a group of cruisers, but on 18 December the George sank at the mouth of the Rio de la Plata.

In the months that followed, a series of tests were carried out in the Irish seas, the main content of which was to study the use of shipborne radars.

On April 9, 1940, the Prestige encountered two new German Scharnhorst-class battlecruisers in West Bay and engaged in an exchange of fire, hitting the Gneisenau twice at around 23,000 meters and forcing the German ship to retreat north.

On November 12, 1940, during the attack on Taranto, the Prestige served as an escort ship for the aircraft carrier Radiance.

In March of the following year, the ship sank three Italian heavy cruisers in one fell swoop with the battleships Warweary, the Barham, in the battle at Cape Matapan.

At the end of May, the Prestige, along with the aircraft carrier Ark Royal, participated in the siege of Bismarck.

In January 1944, the British reorganized the Far East Fleet, and the Prestige was stationed in Colombo along with the Queen Elizabeth, the battleship Warrior, the aircraft carrier Radiance and the French battleship Richelieu.

On 19 April, the Far East Fleet launched a sortie to attack the Japanese base in Sabang, Sumatra, and shelled the base in Surabaya twice in May and July.

In early 1945, two old battleships returned home to be decommissioned, but the Prestige fought until the end of World War II.

In 1947, the prestige of 30 years of service was retired, and the retirement of the first ship with brilliant achievements after two world wars also marked the official retirement of the battle cruiser from the historical stage.

With a good record and a long service time, there is no dispute that it is the most famous battle cruiser, right?

<> "Introduction to the Battleship.

The battleship was armed with large-caliber naval guns, a large ** that operated mainly in the open ocean. Its large body and the armor of the hull are very thick, and it is not easy to sink it with artillery.

Some people say that it is a "sea artillery hangar", because on its front and rear decks, there are more than 100 large and small guns, among which the largest long gun, only one gun hole front shell weighs more than 1 ton, which is enough to destroy all kinds of targets at sea.

The battleship had a narrow bow and a wide hull, while the stern was thin. In World War II, whenever an aircraft carrier sailed to the sea, it always accompanied the left and right as escorts, and when the entire fleet acted together, it often followed behind, covering the attack of other ships with heavy firepower. With the advent of missile nuclear ** and the increasing perfection of aviation and submarines, the role of battleships has sharply decreased.
