Q&A: How common and successful were land based torpedo launchers? Blucher aside, was there any other notable ships they sunk? Also on some turrets the guns are grouped closely together such as on the Pensacola class, but on other ships they were spaced apart, what was the reason for this?
2020-01-27 15:17:30 +0000 UTCQ&A: Why did the engines on ships need to be overhauled or rebuilt so often? I'm a truck driver and we go 250K miles before we even think about doing even the minor overhaul maintenance. But for example, the Admiral Graf Spee was stated that after just 30K miles sailing, it needed an overhaul.

PS Really enjoy your Drydocks, look forward to them every Saturday morning to start my weekend.
