On 12 November 1944, a squadron of 32 British Lancaster bombers flew across Swedish territory up to Tromsø. With them, they had the so-called Tallboy bombs, five-ton bombs designed to penetrate the heavy steel on Tirpitz's hull. Tirpitz was hit three times, capsized and sank in only 11 minutes. (Google) but yeah the Tripitz was sunk by airplanes

Just FYI, KMG Tirpitz was sunk in a Norway fiord by RAF Bombers in 1944.

Most Lancaster's were armed with .303 Browning Machine Guns (7.7mm, which is 30 cal) for their defensive armament. However later in the war some were armed with 50 calibre Browning's in the Tail turret, which is what the Lancasters in the game seem to be modled on.

When you've got some points, and when you go back to port with your big fleet, swap out the 4 crappy destroyers you've got with the ones you were originally gonna get, but you were 1 point short. The Battle Class destroyer was a BRILLIANT destroyer class built by the British. You're gonna need to rearm soon anyways..... 😀

Tirpitz was sunk by Lancasters dropping tallboy bombs in Norway in 1944. It was never in the Med.

They want to build a big airfield in Iceland so the convoys can be protected by air cover as long as possible.
