Here we go
That is the Austo-Hungarian "Tegetthoff" class battleship âSMS Szent IstvĂĄnâ, imediately recognisable due to the platform extending from her bridge to the aft funnel.
She was the only one of her class to have a full Hungarian crew, but unfortunately, executive meddling during her construction led to her being fitted with a different propulsion system.
She had only two instead of four turbines and propeller shafts, which gave her reduced speed and manoeuvrability due to excess cavitation, a problem which ultimately led to her doom at the hands of Italian torpedo boat MAS 15 on June 9 1918.
Yes Sir!
You got it right to the point,. have your turn
ahh,⌠long forgotten,. my favorite quiz page
anyone care to guess?.. interesting rear sight :d
A quick browse trough a small handbook called ONI 203 published in 1943, coupled with this battleshipâs rather unique funnel and distinctive triple 6" turrets suggest this is the French battleship Richelieu.
Also, sorry I forgot about this threadâŚ
yes indeed,âŚ
the thread is yours
Thank you, Mr. Gumalangi!
Here is my humble offer: who can name at least one of these âicedâ boats?
its a VIIC
I knew youâd say that, and no, it isnât.
This is the bow of a VII C and, as you can see, the drainages slots are completely differentâŚ
Sorry, couldnât help adding a few red herrings - I purposefully chose a picture which, at first sight, will make the boat look like well known German types, but, despite the familiar silhouette, the underlying details are completely different.
The way you say, i assumed this no germans
So i opt for Stalinec class subs
Even tough the CŃĐ°ĐťĐ¸Đ˝ĐľŃ (Stalinets) class of Soviet Submarines is somewhat reminiscent of the German submarine classes due to the close collaboration between the two nations in the interwar period as far as weapons production was concerned, unfortunately not only does my offer not belong to this class but also I can safely say it does not belong to the Soviet Navy.
Keep hunting!
i think i dont miss this time,. i had measure the wind and anticipate the movement,. this got to be bulls eye!!
Vetehinen class,. the smaller next to it,⌠is Saukko class they both were at suomenlinna
since the picturs poser didnot confirm it,. but i can confirm it :D,. so ill pose my mistery vessel
anyone can name this beauty?
Hmmm⌠that looks pretty much like the Chilean battleship âAlmirante Latorreâ, built in Britain in 1914 and which served in the British Navy in WW1 as âHMS Canadaâ , before being handed over to Chile in 1920. It was decommissioned in October 1958 and finally scrapped in Japan.
Also, I confirm those were indeed the Finnish subs Saukko and Vetehinen. Sorry I didnât do it earlier, but I simply forgot to check this board as wellâŚ
Yes sir! you get it right :),.
No worries on the fishy icy :),. have your turn
