The "Canvas Kite" Plane That Glitched Hitler’s Best Battleship

The Swordfish was a kite made of cloth. This shouldn't have happened. In 1941, the German Battleship Bismarck was the most feared object on the Atlantic. It had just vaporized the pride of the British Navy in 8 minutes and was equipped with "unbeatable" computer-aimed anti-aircraft guns. But the British didn't send a modern fleet to stop it. They sent the "Stringbag"—an obsolete, open-cockpit biplane held together by piano wire and linen. Inside this deep-dive documentary: The Fatal Glitch: Why the Bismarck’s billion-dollar computers were "too smart" to hit a plane moving at 90mph. The Physics of Fabric: How the Swordfish’s "weakness" (cloth wings) allowed it to survive hits that would have shattered a metal plane. The Golden Shot: A frame-by-frame breakdown of the exact moment a single torpedo jammed the rudders of the world's most advanced ship. Complexity vs. Simplicity: Why the most expensive weapon in the world was defeated by a "flying museum piece." "In the chaos of war, the most advanced tech isn't always the winner. Sometimes, you just need a piece of string and a lot of courage." #MilitaryHistory #Bismarck #Swordfish #WW2 #NavalWarfare #EngineeringFailures #TheStringbag #HistoryDocumentary
