History's Most UNHINGED Warships

A submarine the size of a destroyer. A ship with one knock out gun. Enormous, sluggish steampunk behemoths. An aircraft carrier made out of a paddlewheel steamship. These are some of the most bizarre and unconventional warships of all time. Some were the result of periods of unchecked innovation; where the time between two technological achievements can be littered with awkward, unusual, and failed attempts at pushing the boundaries. For every Ford Model T and Mustang there is a Ford Edsel in the middle. So today, in the start of a new series, let’s look at four very unique vessels - the I-400 submarine, monitor Faa di Bruno, battleship HMS Colossus and the aircraft carrier USS Wolverine. Oceanliner Designs explores the design, construction, engineering and operation of history’s greatest vessels– from Titanic to Queen Mary and from the Empress of Ireland to the Lusitania. Join maritime researcher and illustrator Michael Brady as he tells the stories behind some of history's most famous ocean liners and machines!
