...About to get smacked by an Italian torpedo. This is possibly the HMS Barham or HMS Repulse depending on how you interpret the funnel arrangement. Both were in the Med but no indication either was hit by an Italian torpedo. HMS Barham was sunk in the Med by a U-boat and HMS Repulse was sunk by Japanese aerial attack in SE Asia, of course. The Italians really liked the tri-motor arrangement for some reason. SW Attachments: zzItalTorpedo2.jpg [ 75.17 KiB | Viewed 3977 times ] zzItalTorpedo.jpg [ 11.16 KiB | Viewed 3977 times ]

Checking my copy of Conway's, I believe the ship is HMS Renown as there appears to only be one 15 inch turret on the stern. Repulse was extensively rebuilt in the 30's for her extended stay in Australia and she had a very different bridge arrangement.
