ORP Piorun was a british destroyer class N, named "Nerissa". The crew of the ship was formed (in majority) from crew of polish destroyer "Grom", sunked May 4th, 1940 in Narvik, Norway (Rombakken fiord). And the name "Piorun" (Lightning) was alternative to "Grom" (Thunderbolt). However, the sistership of "Grom" was named "Blyskawica" (also Lightning). "Blyskawica" is the musem-ship in Gdynia. There are a lot of movies @YT with "Blyskawica". And there is comparison of models "Bismarck" and "Piorun" at the same scale: pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/ORP_Piorun_(1940)#/media/Plik:Bismarck_vs_Piorun.jpg
All Vian's destroyers get the same risk: they started torpedo attacks to Bismarck. But one is clear: "Piorun" found "Bismarck" in night and storm. Exactly one man: mat Edward Dolecki. And his announcement was: "The ship right in front of the bow! What a barn!" One hour with german battleship. One to one.

The polish have a reputation of being hard to contain in battle.
Balls of steel, these men had.
Literally David vs Goliath warship version.
Hunger for revenge.

Grom = Thunder (sound)
Piorun = Lightning (physical phenomenon)
Błyskawica = Lightning bolt (what we see)
She to was fortunate to not get hit by Bismark .

... ORP Piorun's name will be forever spoken w/ USS Johnston and Capt Evans ... Audacity !!!
USS Johnson another DD I fucking respect.
It's not MM guns. It's millimeter! This is why AI sucks!
If you read it in Homer's voice it's ok. Hmmmmm guns!
It was my mistake.
AI sucks in some areas, yes, but also excells in others. It only up you you which one you prefer.
It was also built in imperial units, not metric BS.
Typical poland W
N class, not Grom class. Welcome 2 River Clyde. Rangers.
Święta prawda :)
