Destroyers can jump! Seriously!

Check out this screenshot I took. I torpedoed this destroyer and for some reason it decided to launch itself 200-300 feet in the air! That must have been one explosive packed torpedo!

Anyone else had this happen to them? How high have you launched a ship?

Actually it's a British secret weapon called the flying destroyer. Just like the flying tank.

It's that or those ships were made out of elastic.

I torpedoed an armed motor boat once, and that happened, but yikes!

I can never find planes to use my Anti-air ... ok that is the time to use then.

Youtube shut down that video, which is a damned shame.
