What would Britain do with Musashi if it captured the battleship with only minor damage before the war ended?
Short answerBritain would study her thoroughly, then probably scrap her unless a museum could preserve the ship as a major comparative exhibit.
NotesBritain would take Musashi apart and study her. Scrapping is the likelier outcome, though preservation remains a possibility. If the Imperial War Museum acquired the ship, it could also encourage preservation of a British battleship alongside her. The paired ships would allow a comparison of the two navies' designs.
