Re: U,S. Destroyers vs Japans and German Destroyers.

Royal Navy broke the back on the German destroyers at Narvik. Bigger isn't allways better. The German high sea destroyers were bigger the the other nations destroyers n' armed with 15cm guns instead of 4.7" guns. But seamanship does count for a lot n' the German Kriegsmarine lacked much needed high sea experience.
