[Brunner]

No por ahora tengo la primera conferencia el Lunes..mucho laburoo..

 

[Valaquenta]

Brunner tengo entendido que algunas naves (creo que torpederos) japoneses de esta guerra provenian de Argentina o chile, ¿puede ser?.

 

[Brunner]

Los cruceros acorazados ARA Maruiano Moreno y ARA Rivadavia (que hu=ubieran sido el 5.y 6o. buques clase Garibaldi en la ARA. Chile a comienzos de la decada de 1890 habia vendidp el crucero Esmeralda..

Realmente notable, casi una provocación, para que emita opiniones. Felicitaciones. Observaré con prudencia y paciencia.
No es un tema como el de la carrera armamentista a=entre la Argentina y Chile que pueda hacer solo: aqui estamos hablando de decenas de buques capitales y enormes cantidades de torpederos, etc. Yamamoto, porque no te haces carego de la parte japonesa?reseñando la sunidades que habia disponiblle en 1904?o poco a poco haria la rusa..Procer? porque no echas una mano?

 

[Procer]

una pregunta André, el Settsu llegó a peleae en esta guerra? lo digo porque en la lista en inglés esta incluido pero creo que recien entro en 1907

No solo eso: Inglaterra era aliada del Japón, y para embarrar las cosas aun mas, la inexperta marineria rusa, al pasar por el Baco Digger cañoñeo a una flotilla de pesqueros ingleses-confundiendolos con torpederos japoneses. Demas que decir que la Royal Navy los siguio como perro de presa..
