- Operation Catechism marked the decisive end to the menace of the German battleship Tirpitz during World War 2. On November 12, 1944, 29 Royal Air Force heavy Avro Lancaster bombers orchestrated a meticulously planned assault near Tromsø, Norway, where Tirpitz lay anchored...

Tirpitz: “I have a new brilliant strategy to fight the Royal Navy. I call it “Sitting around and looking scary and unpredictable.”
German high command: “Das ist sehr schlau!”
Dambusters: “You’re holding STILL are you?…..good…..very good…..”
Sunk on 24th attempt.
Never miss a video! You're amazing 🫡🫡🫡🫡

Your animations and sound effects are more impressive with every video. Thank you for your work.
It was an informative and wonderful historical coverage video about challenging Tirptiz German battleship and sinking it at 1944 catechism operation . It seems to me that Tirptiz battleship became hostage of its security instead of sea lines supporting disruption within allies....thank you 🙏 (house of history )channel for sharing this remarkable video
The disaster at the port of Bari in Italy in 1943 might make an interesting topic as it was covered up and is little known.
Great suggestion indeed.
Love the content and the amazing animation
Brilliant series. Thank you!
Amazing video as always!
Absolutely fantasticly presented, well done!
3:00 Interesting that 'Operation Goodwood' was also the name given to offensive and the battle for Caen in July 44.
No, Normandy was Operation Goodwood this was Operation _Goodwood._
@@Twirlyhead so BOTH the same then as in my OP
@@jonmassey5619 No, one is in italics.
Thanks for this terrific video! For some reason I'm really fascinated by the battleships & heavy cruisers of the Kriegsmarine.
Tirpitz was hunted obsessively by the British only for that to end when the mighty warship finally sank. Great video.
Not _obsessively_ at all, Tirpitz was important to the Nazis and sinking it beyond repair was very important to the British. "Only for that to end when the mighty warship finally sank" 🙄Well, that _was_ the idea.
@@Twirlyhead---You will pardon me if I don't believe you.
It wasn't that obsessively at all and really by the end it wasn't a mighty warship it had been cowering in a fjord for most of it's time commissioned
@@Twirlyhead Sunk on 24th attempt.
It was during ww2 that this took place.
Love it, I've always loved History, thank you for telling it so well
❤
U really see in WW2 the decline of naval battleships. With the increased speed & aerial maneuvering of aircraft. And the increased reliability & range of attack airplane & bombers. Battleships were just huge targets in the water. Unless you were able to maintain support aircrafts around them,which is not feasible. It was just technology overtaking naval craft. A shame! They were beautiful! Well done sir! As always!
If you're at war, never take the day 11 November off. Something always happens on that day.
Nice set of videos.
Anxiously awaiting your next post sir!
You are doing an awesome job, and I love your videos. Do you plan ton explain some ground battle like Bir Hakeim during WW2 ?
Thanks! I made a video on that years ago, I might make an updated version.
@@HoH Thanks ! I didn't know ! I will watch it !
Just one small point. The raid against the Tirpitz was led by Group Captain Willie Tait. Captain is a Navy and Army rank not an RAF rank.
I'd like to hear about Alvin York
great video as always, I'd love to see a video about HMS Upholder, the best British sub of the war
Can you cover the action at Kidney Ridge from the second battle of El Alamein please.
Great video!
Make a video on the British Eastern Fleet operations.
Like Operation Meridian, Operation Robson and all others under Admiral James Somerville ❤❤
ay another great video
The death of Tirpitz was just as catastrophic as was her big sister Bismarck.
Germans Referred Their Ship's Males Not Females 😃. Hitler's Ship's Were & Are Male's Not Females 😃
@@CRAIGKMSBISMARCKTIRPITZ533 I was not aware that Hitler ships were male. Interesting difference, all ships to me are ladies.

Your graphics for this Tirpitz post 3/3 on Ops Obviate/Catechism are incorrect. There was no Royal Navy involvement, yet you show the RN’s White Ensign rather than the Royal Air Force’s (sky blue) Ensign. You also list “Willie” Tait as Group Captain Royal Navy, when it should read Group Captain Royal Air Force. I had a friend who was one of the Australian Pilots in RAF 9SQN on these two raids and I know he would’ve appreciated the corrections.
There is the actual footage of Tirpitz attack on November 12 1944
Are you guys related to Bazbattles by any chance?
Excellent video. By the way, Could you please add an English subtitle to this video? The existed auto-generated English version is a bit too hard for beginners like me.
Added! My apologies. I forgot.
@@HoH Thank you!
What main line Battleships made it through WW2 intact from any side?
probably the American ones if they survived Pearl Harbor
Depends on what you mean by main line. But as an example, all 4 Iowa class were around and last in service in the 1990s.
Nagato made it past the war and then used as target practice by US nuclear program, Vanguard was the last built battleship by Royal Navy, later simply scrapped instead of being preserved.
@@xeiv1 Well, I was hoping the person would define Main Line and intact. But for completeness, France and Italy both had a couple of battleships survive WWII. The US and the UK had bunches. Even most of the ships sunk/damaged at Pearl Harbor survived WWII. A ship as old as USS Texas survives to this day, but even in WWII would not have been considered a front line battleship.
@@jimsackmanbusinesscoaching1344 I assumed he meant battleships in general, main line just being there, because, we can also put Mikasa in here, considering she survived both WW and is over 130 year old museum ship in Japan, she is in fact the only ship of her class and would be considered main line pre-dreadnought battleship. But you are correct, Germany probably was the only country that lost all battleships, Italy, France, Japan, GB, US all had surviving battleships, of which there were plenty of ships that SHOULD have been preserved.
I read somewhere that the norwegians are still using it by scrapping piece of it. Is it true?
Not the ship. But part of the armorplates is used as temporary roadsurface during roadwork in Oslo.
Can you make a series about Russo-Japanese War😌
How about more on the first world war, the one between Rome and Persia
battle of Putot-en-Bessin 1944, please
It didn't go quietly into the night
I wonder how many subs they could have made with the resources used in the construction of the battleships.
ask Adolf
Sometimes doing less produces more results, i mean look at how many ship got tied up due to the risk it possed to ally convoys. Convoys further out = Far less tonage shipping or way more ships needed and also needing more escorts = Less to deply elsewhere. In a sense tirpitz was a sucess even when it barely didn't get to do much directly - Bogging down plenty of resources that were depirately needed elsewhere. The english admirality knew it and its not without reason they made it a high priority to neutralize
The allies had the resources, the Germans didn’t. All the steel in the ship, manpower, logistics and air power devoted to parking it in a fjord pending sinking was much needed elsewhere.
By six hundred and seventeenth, did you mean Six-one-Seven squadron?
4:15 it's pronounced 'six-one-seven' squadron

ingerlish nationalism. Not a country that you well know
I am racist against obese women :D
I love the videos, thanks, but I can't get over just how peanuts this was compared to what was going on in the Pacific at the exact same time. Navy lite I guess.
peanuts to you maybe, but the Russians needed this stuff from the UK urgently to combat the Nazis, thus drawing them away from their Nazi strength in western Europe. Tactilely vital to aid in the outcome of the war in my opinion.

Outstanding series. Thank you.
