National Anthem Stars Spangled Banner #WarOf1812: September 13-14, 1814: 19 powerful #RoyalNavy warships armed with rockets attacked Baltimore, Maryland’s Fort McHenry. American Francis Scott Key was on a truce ship where he observed the bombardment. 1/

@CovertShores @GavicWayne @napalmgod @milmodelscene 5/ Several of you say the Project 23560E Shkval Lider-class has a pagoda #STARWARS Imperial Star Destroyer vibe. :) But what about the Space Battleship Yamato? Or back on earth, what about the #IJN Nagato?

3/ A key innovation is the Universal Modular Mast (UMM) with fully digital photonic sensors instead of a traditional periscope and all digital other sensors. It's a separate module in the sail that does not penetrate into the hull improving integrity.↙️by @herodote1789!

@centerepublican @JudahBDavis @militaryhistori 2/ The Lider-class concept is an powerful, elegant, rakish 19,000-ton, 32-knots, nuclear-powered, stealth, guided missile destroyer. 1x130mm. 100+ vertical launch cells for ASM + SAM; 6 x torpedoes; 3 × Pantsir-M CIWS; helicopters: 2.

#OttomanEmpire #Map November 1, 1922 - 100 Years ago #OTD, the Ottoman Empire ends post WW1... Founded in 1299 AD by namesake Osman I, it quickly spread across Anatolia, conquered #Byzantium and Constantinople and so much more. The apex was under #Suleiman the Magnificent.

#Earthquakes #Lisbon #Portugal #Tsunami - Lisbon’s saddest day ever was All Saints Day, Saturday, November 1, 1755. It was a very holy day and Portugal was a very holy place. It had chapels made of gold, famous navigators, and so much going for it. 1/

#avgeek #planespotting #USNavy #USAF #USMC: Douglas SBD Dauntless / A-24 Banshee carrier-borne and land-based dive-bomber saw extensive action in the Pacific. At Midway, SBDs damaged the IJN carriers Akagi, Kaga, Soryu and Hiryu, leading to loss of all four. 1/ TY @Sylvia70485099

@HornetMuseum @Rich_Ships @slottsstaden @DramaWarship @WorldofWarships @WarshipPorn @militaryhistori @BattleshipNJ @GavicWayne @USNavyCNO 3/ Surprisingly, Hornet displaced only 20,000 tons standard, 25,500 full load. Specs: 824’ 9” l x 114’ b x 28’ d; 120,000 shp; 32.5 knots; crew: 2,919; 72 aircraft; 3 elevators; 3 catapults; armor: 4” deck; 2.5”-4” belt. Most carriers had little armor; Hornet was no exception.

10/ I love these M60 cross-sections. ↖️and ↗️are from https://t.co/MuxVgxS59d. I'd love to know where it is. ↙️ is from this excellent site: https://t.co/EO8fvZwilh.↘️is from https://t.co/GHAHnDWjr4.

6/ The Allison engines underperformed above 15,000'. RAF test pilots suggested using the Rolls Royce Merlin in the P-51. Packard started making license-building them as 1520 hp Packard V-1650. The result was the P-51B /Mustang III. 1,987 built at Inglewood, California.
