Q & A: Could you explain the various stages of warship construction? 1. What does actually it mean to be “laid down,” “launched,” “completed,” “commissioned,” “fitting out,” “working up,” and “on a shakedown cruise” (and any other key milestone I’ve missed)? 2. At what point in the process would a warship technically be “seaworthy” in an emergency — as in, it could sail on the open ocean and carry-out non-military functions, like natural disaster relief or transporting refugees?

The 5th USA Army Airforce version of the B-25 had up to twelve .50 caliber machine guns pointing forward. and they would attack at tree top height while leaving a trail of parafrag bombs in their wake. If you survived one of these attacks I don't think you would hang around for a second.

If the RN had been tasked with the Nov.13 first battle of Guadalcanal, give us the heavy cruiser, light cruiser, destroyer lineup they would have and what RN Admiral would you choose to lead this desperate fight?
