OMG, i guess one day we will get this, although i don’t l play navy.
Looks like an ironclad. What makes it so special? is it famous because some battle or…?
This particular ship was in a lopsided battle and when the captain saw that the battle was a clear loss with large casulties, he decided to try to ram his ship into one of the Japanese ships.
This is Chih Yuen protected cruiser.
See my post: ICN Zhiyuan(Chih Yuen) protected cruiser - China - War Thunder - Official Forum
Japanese mini submarines and torpedo boats captured in Taiwan
530, 531, 534, 538, 539, 540 would be repaired and go on to serve in the 3rd gunboat squadron. By 1949 only two were on the naval list and one remained. 850 was scrapped.
Not sure what the fates for the submarines (89 and 86) were, they don’t show up in the 1946 fleet list. (Also can’t figure out what the last character is under 86 89 - 待X?). 72 was scrapped.
