so i went a little detailed in it and mentioned that he's more bernard than me...
but i guess il have to be more detailed again :hmm:

I`ve encountered several icebergs in north-mid-Atlantic, like 1000 nm from Greenland and there were few near Spitsbergen - I`ve found few patrol vessels around the place, was ridiculous...but interesting, in certain way.
Besides, there`s interesting dependency you know. If I`m looking for merchants, I find icebergs. When I`m looking for icebergs I don`t find any but keep spotting the merchants :hmm:

[NiclDoe]

XXi its the Brits crazy idea to fool Icebergs as merchants becuase iceebergs can take the torps and not sink which they deadly if you get too close.

[XXi]

Damn it !
It looks you`re right These Brits, the tricky ones !

Well I know of Habakuk project. Interesting one and not that stupid - it would be very hard to put down such ice carrier. AFAIR it has not been made because before the production really started there it was already 1943 and the situation was beeing slowly put under control, besides the costs were enormous.

Hey, pykrete is amazing stuff - even a relatively thin block can stop a 7.62mm rifle round at very close range, and it melts very slowly. And the proposed pykrete carriers were more like massive floating islands, up to 2000ft in length.

There is a plaque on the shores of Patricia Lake (Jasper, Alberta) where the only prototype structure was built (and then abandoned in late 1943 - it was argued there was little use for such massive floating airfields by that time, and the money would be better spent on other projects).
