![]() "Hitting a CV and a BB is no difference" is not a valid argument. So this hit is scored at a range very close to 30000 Yards, which is 27.4km, more than both Scharn and Warspite. ![]() Range/Belt Penetration/Deck Penetration/Striking Velocity/ Angle of fall 25,000 yards (22,860 m)ĭamn it I should have copied the entire chart This is the stats of 16"/45 Mark 6 firing 2700 lbs AP Mark 8 German Engineering is a joke, it's just that simple. ![]() Oh should I mention that Bismarck never scored a hit during her final battle even tho her armament system was unharmed in the beginning? Bismarck however, enjoyed a far better engaging position, and of the six shots, five were scored between 15300-17200. But even with all these difficulties, POW scored 3hits/59shots. POW drew close in an angled position which also meant a hard time for her director. You may notice how fast the distance drew close. Also POW faced serious problem with the reliability of the A and X quad turrets. Destoryed a boat onboard Bismarck.īefore 0559, X turret never fired. Underwater hit, destroyed a power generator and flooded a machinery.Ġ559, 16150, 11th salvo, hit. Broken Bismarck's front fuel tank.Ġ557, 18250, ninth salvo, hit. Oh BTW, Yamato's AB gun salvo straddled/hit(according to different sources) USS White Plains in a really tight pattern and has damaged the CVE from over 30000 Yards away.Īt 0553, POW started firing at Bismarck 26500 YardsĠ556, 21150 Yards, sixth salvo, hit. And that's in competition with Warspite which is a WWI ship.Īnd Scharn's was hitting a CV which clearly was a bigger target due to the higher freeboard. ![]() If you want to mention Scharn, that's a confirmed moving to moving hit, be precise. ![]() USS Massachusetts hitting Jean Bart(Jean Bart was not finished at that time so this is a moving to stationary hit). Against radar assisted USN fast BBs? Of course they're better. Non radar gunnery? German was probably the best. Guess what ship from what nation blow up the hood in 8 minutes. Guess which nation hold the longest naval gunfire hit. ![]()
