And a Whitehead was there!
The animation shows the desk launch carriage that was used when HMS SHAH fired a 16 inch torpedo at the Peruvian armoured turret ship Huascar in 1877 in the epic Battle of Pacocha. In the course of the action the Shah fired the first torpedo to be used in anger, although it missed – being outrun by Huascar.

Admiral Kuznetsov: heavy aircraft 'cruiser' In the Russian Navy, "aviation cruiser" is a designation for the Kiev and Kuznetsov-class ships. They are a cross between cruiser and aircraft carrier and are divided in two classes, the aviation cruisers and the heavy aviation cruisers. The Kuznetsov class ships are considered to be aircraft cruisers under international law. The term originally used by her builders to describe the Soviet ships is tyazholiy avianesushchiy kreyser (TAKR or TAVKR) – “heavy aircraft-carrying cruiser” – intended to support and defend strategic missile-carrying submarines, surface ships, and maritime missile-carrying aircraft of the Soviet fleet. Under the Montreux Convention, the Soviet Union was not allowed to transit aircraft carriers heavier than 15,000 tons through the Turkish Straits. However, there is no tonnage restriction on cruisers operated by Black Sea Powers. Turkey has always allowed them to pass through the Straits, and no other signatory to the Montreux Convention has objected to their designation as cruisers.
