The Mogami class is one of my favorite ship classes. I think they and many other Japanese designs are very pretty and elegant with their unique superstructure shapes
You should check then the Yūbari. It was that little cruiser the one that defined almost all the rest warships of the IJN. Yuzuru Hiraga was the designer.
I really like the Pagoda masts on The late war ijn warships for some reason, the ones that just look like steel slabs piled on top of each other, there's a ship I forget which one, maybe the aoba, but it has almost like a wicked forward lean when you look at it from the side, for some reason the Pagoda masts have always intrigued to me . Obviously the yamato-class, with the backwards raked funnel, and that massive, fat bow. American warships of the period were more utilitarian, it seems like the Japanese and Italians actually considered looks when they designed their warships instead of just functionality.
I'm actually quite surprised HMHS Britannic wasn't in this video given how she did sink during WWI. Bias aside, I would definitely love to see a part 2 to this!
I'd love to see a future video about the SS L'Atlantique, she's one of my favourite ships. Great video altogether though, I really love these War Ship stories.
Very insulting! Mike does a lot of research to bring us these videos-- there is nothing in the genre of fantasy in these videos! TODAY’S Disney is nothing but a WOKE JOKE without any resemblance to what it was in the 1950’s and 1960’s.
Hi, this is your friend Nkandu Kataya from Lusaka, Zambia. a landlocked country in central Africa. I love maritime stuff. Naval stuff, age of sail, ocean liners, the works. its great to see how much warship content youve been putting out. its a nice change of pace for you, and great for us who are interested in all things floaty! please keep up the good work.
Hi mike. how do you design or draw ships like, its so cool. and i want to mabye try making my favourite car-ferry M/F Solskjel because what you make is so GOOD! (and inspiring) and i want to try
Have you ever done an episode on the conspiracy around the ship at the bottom of the Atlantic actually being the Olympic through an insurance switch job?
My nine year old son and I really enjoyed watching this together. He loves ships and history. Perfect way to spend quality time between a father and son. Thank you Mike for this past hour.
On the SS Rex story: worth also mentioning the time when an aircraft tried to deliver a package to someone aboard the Olympic. Although the Olympic was the largest floating target in the world, the aviator missed. (Story in Maxtone Graham's "The Only Way to Cross".)
Rats are the first to abandon a ship when it sinks. A short video about the rats. It is not a joke. Today has no rats on board but yesterday had. I am seaman retired. Old.
It blows my mind sometimes to think that the vessels that were sunk or otherwise lost are today the only survivors. Of the ships that fought the Bismarck for example [eta - at the final battle] none survive. Only their prey remains as a wreck.
I need a Boats and Bourbon, or.. "Ships and Sips" Podcast with you and Big Old Boats and maybe somebody else. Idk. I would listen to 2-3 hours of you guys talking about boats..
Great video! It made me think that, since you are interested in ships lost to war, why not study the ships involved in the Halifax explosion during World War I? These ships were not lost to enemy fire, but to their own cargo and a collision in port. But the result was truly catastrophic. A video you make of these ships should be fascinating!
I am even planning on making a cardboard model of the SS Rex after bombing, Mike, IDK if I told you, I am one who makes shipwrecks from scratch out of cardboard, I have made 44 so far, and also, I made a game of the sinking of HMS Glowworm as well, it's available on rec room as I told you for some of my other games, IDK if you have the time to play, and I even did Fuso as well, along with her sister Yamashiro.
Mitchell's "tests" were essentially rigged, with Mitchell attacking stationary, unarmed ships, essentially sitting ducks. The myth of high-level, "precision bombing" took a long to die in World War II despite its failure to accomplish much of anything in terms of its original mission of sinking enemy ships. All the ship's mentioned as sunk by airpower in this video were sunk by either torpedo or dive bombers. None by high level bombers of any of the combatants. The only enemy ship sunk on the high seas by, rather than anchored in harbor, by the high level bombers was a Japanese destroyer which had stopped to pick up survivors. The captain when queried by his subordinates defended his decision by noting that high level bombers had not sunk anything so far in the war. Well, he was mistaken since the one thing a high level bomber can hit is a stationary target.
Love your channel Mike. The normalization of the allocation of vast resource and technology to produce evermore efficient instruments of death, does my head in as well.
Hey Mike I was just thinking, since you like doing all manners of wrecks That you should do a 45+ minute video on dangerous wrecks. From Russian sub. Still producing radioactive waste, To ones filled with WW2 ammunition and ordnance. Anyone who reads this like or comment, so Mike sees this.. I think he could do them justice. And perhaps bring light to shipwrecks we aren’t familiar with..
And the 45 minute is not mandatory. But 52 is… so I hope you know how much we enjoy your work and the void you filled that had been open for some time in your field of the wrecks and ship a like..
I live in Invergordon Scotland. During both WWs it was a Navy base for the entire UK fleet repairs, including the Hood... It had a few floating dry docks which would lift and repair battleships.
What a shame. The lovely SS Rex became the SS Wrecks. Sorry for the terrible pun. This video is certainly first class. BTW, the Army Air Corps didn't become the US Air Force until 1947.
My dad was in the Eight Army in Egypt during early WW2 then in Northern Europe (I'm 72) and I remember him telling me he was on the Queen Mary when it was a troopship, in I believe in 1941. Watching this I wonder if he was on it when those German bombers were looking for it, and would I be here if they had found it? He's long gone now so I can't ask him, I wish I had asked him lots of questions but to be honest he didn't like to talk about it.
Popcorn and a Diet Coke? Me thinks a cold frosty glass of milk goes better with a bowl of popcorn! That said - what a marvelous video! Kudos and cheers !!
Congratulations on the documentary show, I also love ships, especially warships, not because of the drama of the loss of life but because of the ships and their technology..👏👏👏🇵🇹👍
Remarkable pedagogical talent! This is a special skill that most people do not manage. You cover the entire Bloom's taxonomy very well. It does not surprise me you have accumulated so many subscribers.
Mike, how in the world did they manage to get railroad locomotives on a ship and where did they put them? Were the locomotives in several pieces or in just one piece? I just can’t picture it!
I remember back in the 90s, when the Thistlegorm first became well known, there was a scheme put forward to raise one of the 8Fs for preservation. Im very glad it never came to anything.
i watch and enjoy a lot of your videos, but the needless images of radar scopes in the first segment irritate me. these systems did not exist in the time period......
Hello, dear friend Mike Brady. Just quickly wanted to give my thanks to the excellent content you publish on youtube. I always look forward to the videos about warships. Not saying I skip your oceanliner content, which also boasts incredible quality, but I hope you keep up with both content as I learn alot from it. Cheers from a Naval ww1 and 2 history enthusiast.
General Billy Mitchell was right about neglect of some of the higher ranking officers in our military. It is sad that he did not live to see his - Air Force become a reality. Another excellent work there Mike. Thank you. Shalom
When the Japanese Imperial Navy torpedoes the Japanese Imperial Army, is that really an example of friendly fire?
Tbh I don't think so lol
Friendly fire doesn't seem very friendly,.. does it..?
This was the plan all along, the Mogami saw an opportunity and seized the moment.
Think its fair game to them
The Americans were the IJN's opponents.
The army was the IJN's enemies.
Hello, my friend Mike Brady.
He is MY friend only.

They look like they're begging to capsize! I don't know how they stabilized them.
I'm actually quite surprised HMHS Britannic wasn't in this video given how she did sink during WWI. Bias aside, I would definitely love to see a part 2 to this!
Britannic was simply the victim of an enemy mine, not friendly fire
A day off and a long Mike Brady episode!!
Life is good.

I see a Mike Brady video. I click like and then I watch.

That would be an excellent episode .
my god, mike brady's done it again
Poor beautiful Rex, it's a real shame that this beautiful ship was destroyed 😢
She was a nice looking ship.
IT'S OUR FRIEND, MIKE BRADY, FROM OCEANLINER DESIGNS, WITHOUT A MUSTACHE!
Oh interesting topic! I *had* heard these names but hadn’t listened to the stories all together. I like this format
“Ladies and gentlemen, it’s your friend Mike Brady, and you’re watching Disney Channel”
Just because he can tell a story that a lady can watch?. I’m curious
Disney wishes they had such an asset…

1941? The Army Air Force was an Army organization until the reorganization in 1948, when the United States Airforce was created.
Close. The Air Force was formed in 1947.
Army Air Corps until 41
Army Air Force from 41 to 47

Awesome video Mike well done ❤
A collection of existing videos, though. But yeah, good compilation!

The Germans had some beautiful ships
The treatment of Gen. Mitchell is reprehensible. The worst of politics, ego, arrogance and bureaucracy
Love your channel Mike. The normalization of the allocation of vast resource and technology to produce evermore efficient instruments of death, does my head in as well.
This was a great watch, thanks for your time, work and posting............
A perfect night. Just me, some popcorn, a Diet Coke, and my friend Mike Brady !
Just when i think I dont have any friends, I remember that I am subscribed to this channel.
An extraordinary compilation of warships
Hey Mike I was just thinking, since you like doing all manners of wrecks
That you should do a 45+ minute video on dangerous wrecks.
From Russian sub. Still producing radioactive waste,
To ones filled with WW2 ammunition and ordnance.

I live in Invergordon Scotland. During both WWs it was a Navy base for the entire UK fleet repairs, including the Hood... It had a few floating dry docks which would lift and repair battleships.
Have you done videos on the Franklin Expedition for the northwest passage? And if you haven't, include the song northwest passage by Stan Rogers
What a shame. The lovely SS Rex became the SS Wrecks. Sorry for the terrible pun. This video is certainly first class. BTW, the Army Air Corps didn't become the US Air Force until 1947.
Mike...Diet Coke? Really? 🤮. I sat back and relaxed with a glass bottle of genuine Mexican Coke...the absolute real thing! 😝

Billy Mitchell. The greatest video game player of the century. Those who know, know.
