Fullbore Friday

A return to a topic we've covered before on FbF, but I think we should be thinking about the Battle of Tsushima more, and not less - so we're bringing it back.

A couple of great videos to review while you keep a couple of things in mind; an established power with maintenance issues and long lines of communication to get to the fight; a rising power with well run and maintained ships fighting in their backyard.



If you want to see more of the MIKASA (and you know you do);



If you'd rather just see warships belching coal and belting out broadsides ...



Never underestimate your enemy. Never underestimate the Japanese. Always, fullbore.
