Fascinating...! What purpose did the biplanes serve?
scouting and anti-submarine patrols.
cool.
Thanks.
Were the biplanes launched from destroyers and not aircraft carriers? They couldn't land again on that same vessel?
They landed on the water and were lifted back aboard with a crane.
Thanks for the explanation. I had had no idea that planes were launched from destroyers!
Actually cruisers - bigger ships (10,000 tons instead of 2,000).
