I love the historic power of WW2 photos and movies. This concept pictures the mighty Bismarck, the largest battleship in its time, as it get visual contact with the British battlecruiser HMS Hood. When Bismarck and Prinz Eugen attempted to break out into the Atlantic, the two ships were discovered by the Royal Navy and brought to battle in the Denmark Strait. During the short engagement, Hood, the flagship of the Home Fleet and pride of the Royal Navy, was sunk after several minutes of firing. In response, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill issued the order “Sink the Bismarck!”, spurring her relentless pursuit by the Royal Navy.
Bismarck took part in only one operation (lasting 135 hours) during her brief career. She and the heavy cruiser Prinz Eugen left Gotenhafen (Gdynia) on the morning of 19 May 1941 for Operation Rheinübung, during which she was to have attempted to intercept and destroy convoys in transit between North America and the United Kingdom.

The first effective tank type during World War 1 – the English Mark 1 tank also known as a Landship because the concept was originally inspired from the mighty Dreadnaugt ships. The type had no suspension whatsoever a was very hard to the crew members. The engine developed so much heat that temperatures easely could reach 70 degrees inside the hull.
