A historical analysis argues naval power develops through trials and varied vessels. Britain and Japan push vast fleets with aircraft, torpedo craft, and armored ships to test and refine what succeeds in future war.

Casualties to Vessels Of The United States Navy Lost At Sea

A compiled list from Navy Journal catalogs U.S. Navy ships lost or sunk in peacetime and war, detailing crews saved and casualties. Entries include Albany sloop of war in 1855 West Indies with 210 on board, Bainbridge brig off Hatteras, and others such as De Soto and Monitor with varying losses. The piece also notes later foreign ship losses like Doterel and Victoria with substantial casualties, and describes a torpedoed Tink Yuen with dramatic onboard effects.

Naval power and risks of modern battleships in warfare

The piece weighs the destructive energy of a battleship with rifled artillery and heavy guns against the dangers of mechanical failure. It argues that despite vast investments, only expert, highly disciplined fleets endure, while poorly trained forces risk ruin in sophisticated warfare. It stresses that survivability hinges on top nations with organized, disciplined navies.
