      National Geographic didn't take the same route that History Channel did in the early 2010's. They still want to teach you and spread knowledge, whereas History Channel is more focused now on making money and entertaining tv shows over teaching. Don't get me wrong, History Channel still makes good stuff to learn from, but they're nowhere near what they used to be.

      Please watch Surigao golds in Butuan and Philippine Golds: Treasures of the lost Kingdoms. It proves how busy is this part of the ocean. I personally don't believe in Magellan spice lies. This explains here. He was already in Malacca/Malaysia and saw the busy trades of our Ancestors and our islands in the Philippines is one of their hubs. We so many sunkin ships around our islands from WW II and the Manila Galeon trade. These golds accidentally found were approximately around 11th/12 centuries back but there's more to uncover way back before that.

    The USS Tang was sunk by it's last torpedo in the Taiwan Strait during WWII. Some of her crew survived and a few got out after she sank by using the Momsun Lung and the forward escape hatch. She is in about 250 feet of water, yet no one has ever tried to locate her. Is there a reason China and Taiwan won't allow anyone to survey wrecks in the Strait?

    As a young boy during the 1970s. I went fishing with my father's boat. He always wants me to fish in the bow of the boat while his crews fished on the back of the stern. Most of the time, my fishing line was pulled by larger fish, and when my line was stuck, I was unable to pull it up. I look down under the ocean bed. I am able to see the skeletons of Japanese ships. I watched this National Geographic document, and now that I am older, I realize many Japanese' ships were sunk under Vietnamese territory in the ocean.

    Port Royal is a city located at the end of the Palisadoes at the mouth of the Kingston Harbour, in southeastern Jamaica. Founded in 1518, it was the centre of shipping commerce in the Caribbean Sea during the latter half of the 17th century. It was destroyed by an earthquake in 1692 and a subsequent tsunami, and fires. Severe hurricanes have regularly damaged it. Another severe earthquake occurred in 1907

      Japan at that time was serious about that fact. in truth they are the first nation to built aircraft carrier anew and not by converting other vessels.
      A6M Zero is designed for carrier-based operations. They had CV fleet. but lost ones at Midway and did try to rebuild carrier fleets, to the point of converting two Dreadnoughts afts by adding flight decks and the third of Yamato class Superdreadnought into Aircraft Carrier (The Biggest until USS Forrestal came to service).

      If the whale was caught on the cable, wouldn’t that keep it underwater, unable to breathe?

    The Yamato and Musashi battleships were built to fight WW1-type sea battles and showed how they were out-moded against the new strategies developed during WW2, with aerial bombing campaigns from aircraft. Same is happening now with tanks being destroyed with small drones loitering above them dropping grenades on it or into the turret. Also the hypersonic self-guided cruise missile might end the age of the supercarrier.

      The other handicapped not mentioned is the USA had already broken the Imperial Japanese Naval code and could listen in on IJN HQ messages.

    Well, that put's an end to Star Blazers, the Japanese anime space series, where Yamato is raised and turned into a space going battleship. They did have 18 inch anti aircraft shells, but they weren't like modern shells and were ineffective.

    Kamikaze 神風 means God's Wind. The Mongol defeat and the Russian defeat in 1905 were all attributed to Kami Kaze - God's winds coming into save Japan. The Kami Kaze pilots were not suicidal pilots. Most of the pilots were the elite warriors and they believed that they would fly on God's Wind to victory. Kami Kaze is all about the God status of their emporer and thus having god on their side nothing could defeat them. Even when things appear to be overwhelming and defeat is at their door step, God's wind comes and turns the battle in their favor. Kami Kaze is a religious belief, which the nation of Japan believed hole heartedly, as Kami Kaze had been winning wars for Japan for centuries. That is why they will fight to the last moment.

      If you were to watch the stories of the how the young kamikaze pilots used to come back two or three times because they couldn't make their attacks you would realize there was more shaming than religious beliefs in what they were doing.The Japanese gave up like every other countries soldiers, it just depended if those allies were taking prisoners at that time.

      The reason the Japanese won in 19 0 5 was because the Russian fleet sailed around the world to fight. The fleet came from the Baltic, attacked British trawlers by accident almost causing war with Britain.
      The only wind at Tshima, helped put the burning Russian ships fires out I think.The Mongols tried to attack Japan and the Kami Kazie wiped out the Mongol fleet. Anyways have great knight.

    I have a different theory on Khan's navy disappearance and found it under the seabed buried in silt. I am postulating a tsunami, because of the nature of the debris field. A tsunami force is the only force that could push all those ships together in one place and bury them all under slits. As many ships as Kublak Khan had sailed in close proximity, a typhoon would have pushed them together forming a sort of swirling floating platform. The debris field would have looked like a circular/centripetal swirling field. The almost straight and concave debris fields suggest a tsunami-like force that pushes debris together in wave-like formations
