Send me a message 48 hours after the Japanese launched their surprise attack on Pearl Harbour their aircraft delivered an equally devastating blow to the Royal Navy. On the 10th December 1941, the warships HMS Prince of Wales and HMS Repulse were sunk by torpedoes launched by Japanese aircraft. It was the first time that warships defending themselves & sailing in open water had been sunk solely by an air attack. It would change naval warfare forever.Support me by becoming a Patron Support the show Rss Apple Podcaster →
