What if Tribal-class destroyers were present at the Battle of Denmark Strait?
Short answerThey would probably launch an aggressive flank attack, bring the British cruisers in behind them, and turn the battle into a much more complex fight for Bismarck and Prinz Eugen.
NotesAdmiral Holland would probably struggle to keep a Tribal-class flotilla at a distance once battle began. The destroyers would attack Bismarck and Prinz Eugen from another bearing, adding torpedoes and close-range pressure to the capital-ship engagement. Their movement would also make it harder to hold the supporting County-class cruisers outside the fight. Germany would face a broader British attack from several directions at once.
