Скачать или смотреть World War I Warships: Armour and Survival

In Episode 6 of WWI Warships Explained, we examine the armour, compartmentalisation, and damage-control systems that determined whether a dreadnought survived — or exploded catastrophically.

From massive 10–13 inch armor belts to thinner deck protection vulnerable to plunging fire, this episode breaks down how naval engineers balanced protection, speed, and firepower in the early 20th century.

We explore how warships were divided into dozens of watertight compartments, how flooding was contained, and why magazine protection became the most critical factor in preventing catastrophic explosions.
