Sinking of Shinano Ad Free Early Access
🕑 Added 2022-12-22 17:53:19 +0000 UTCHello & Merry Christmas to you all.
Here's early access to the last video of the year. It will be a shorter time than normal until the video goes live- I was sick part of last week and this which has delayed it, and I want to get the video out before Xmas to round out the year.
The video is on the sinking of the carrier Shinano by USS Archerfish in November 1944.
As a gesture for Christmas, I've given all patrons regardless of tier early access for this one.
Thanks for all the support as always- onwards to 2023!

As I mention in the video, the bulkheads were not watertight - water leaked through rivets and badly-fitting watertight doors
Awesome video, the listing part with the angles is genius, we can really feel what it's like to have a 20° port list... Also, I've a (kinda) stupid question: why did the center rooms of the citadel, the ones that weren't affected by the torpedoes, start to be flooded as well? Isn't there supposed to be any watertight doors between rooms?

Really interesting video, you don't often get to see exactly how a warship sinks when it's attacked, so this was very insightful!
