Military History Verbalized

A while ago North Korea threatened to shoot down a B-1B Lancer on its east coast. There was quite some discussion going on, Andy and Justin take a closer look at North Korean capabilities and other aspects here.

In this podcast Noah and I (MHV) talk about Erwin Rommel. Now some of you might know my video on "Why Rommel is complicated" already. Yet, recently I was a guest a conference, where several leading German military historians discussed Rommel quite vehemently, so there are some new parts of information in here as well.

This episode is hosted by Justin Pyke and he speaks with Stephen Hembree aka Azumazi about Imperial Japanese Ship Design from the Kawachi Class to the Yamato Class (and a bit more).

NOTE: Justin could only use his audio with "listen to this device" enabled, so he was talking while listening to what he just said a half second before.

Recently I did a video on Why the Bismarck didn't shoot down any of the Swordfish bi-plane bombers when it was attacked by 15 of them. Link to the Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PTO3JagV8gE

The Intro line of the video was:

The German battleship Bismarck was one of the most advanced warships at its commission, yet during its first operation it was struck critically by Fairey Swordfish bi-plane bombers, which look quite archaic and old-fashioned.

In this episode Justin (Master in Military History) and I will discuss the statement and several aspects around Warship Construction, Naval Warfare, Context, Ship Classes like Iowa, Yamato, North Carolina, Treaty regulations and all the other stuff that matters.
