To destroy english convoy system. However she would had meet the same challenge that actual got her down. Aircrafts!! Next it would be a measurement of resources to build her and in partical what the germans had to suffer to build her. For excample the german Hanger ship Grafspee that was never completed did consumes so much rubber that the germans could had buil 19.000 planes or 10.000 tanks instead. But Bismarck would not ever had been able to do any return of investment in ration of sunked merchan ships when you know what the germans could had gone instead and what goals those tanks and airplains could had achieved. Please have in mind how Graf Spee enden. I was almost as pathetic as Bismarck. Bismarck would had continued to follow it main task. To destroy english convoy system.

I love your magazines and always read them, just that i think it would be interesting and necesary to write more about the losing sides hardships, experiences, methods, how and why they lost the battles, always a heart felt interview of the guys who fought is welcome, although we are reaching a point where these vets are dying of, just as there are no more left from WW1. Always weapons used, tactics, training is expect. Something intersting, and i havent seen yet(dont know if i missed it) is various articles of the gigantic clean up europe had to go through after the war, corpses,tank and airplane hulks, city ruble and displaced people, etc. Would be highly appreciated a comment on this regard. Keep it up. These What if series are excelent, we all know who won WW2.

Independence is largely secured through the employment of armed forces and the willingness to fight if threatened, this alone prepares us all for such an eventuality. I commend you on your site it contains a lot of quality information and is well done. http://www.greatmilitarybattles.com/html/battle_of_battleship_bismarck.html Despite the morality of using violence to achieve personal or political aims, the fact remains that Countries exist because of wars fought against their neighbours or rivals.
