counterfeitsaint posted:I'm not super well versed in naval warfare, but I thought destroyers were best at tracking subs, while cruisers and carriers and (formerly) battleships were more vulnerable to them. Destroyers were originally small fast ships with light guns to fight enemy torpedo boats the big guns could not hit. Then someone realized they could just stick torpedoes on the destroyers and do away with torpedo boats. These days the Navy calls ships as large as a WW2 heavy cruiser a destroyer to fool Congress.

They're moving this storyline with the 'president' in some unexpected directions. "Look at him, he's being held against his will" "Nah, he's just an rear end in a top hat bad with crowds" "Welcome aboard Mr. President, let me show you your place in the brig" The sub/ship scene was a bit dumb with suddenly the NJ being unable to launch the helo for tension reasons but the kitchen fight was great. Good to see Israeli girl not doing some krav maga poo poo but just stabbing with the cutlery at hand.

For a second there I though Dr. Scott would go for a vivisection when she started to make room on a table. Good to see the Rhona Mitra from Strike Back there instead of her just talking tech stuff.
