If HMS Warspite as rebuilt in 1940 replaced her 1916 self at Jutland, how much of the German First Scouting Group would escape?
Short answerUnder the assumptions used in the reply, probably none, unless Warspite exhausted her ammunition; the follow-up also stresses the role of the crew.
NotesIn this time-slip scenario, the answer assumes that Warspite's reconstructed machinery, higher speed, and radar-directed gunnery would give her an overwhelming advantage over the First Scouting Group. Ammunition endurance is the principal limitation suggested. A follow-up asks whether the 1940 crew arrives with the ship and challenges the idea that equipment makes the crew irrelevant. The example is the crew's willingness to try a shot at an Italian battleship at record range, bringing trained people and initiative into the comparison.
