60 Second Warships: Prinz Eugen

Want to know more about the history of the ships in your favorite video games? 60 Second Warships fills you in! This time the featured warship is the German cruiser Prinz Eugen, who survived WW2 and was a target ship during US nuclear testing at Bikini Atoll. Check it out, and let me know in the comments which ship you’d like to see next!

As a German Speaker your pronunciation of Prinze Eugen is incredibly satisfying. Great video.

Btw the Prinz Eugen wasn't actually directly sunk by the nukes but because the sealing near the propellers had suffered damage, also because of the radiation no one was operating the pumps causing the ship to eventually roll over and sink 5 months after the tests. (Last test was in July and she sank on the 22nd of December)

How about the legacy of ships named _Enterprise_? Might be denser than 60 seconds, of course, from mast and sail to CVN-65, to the Space Shuttle atmospheric test article, to fictional usages of that name (Star Trek and elsewhere.)
