Warships

Today we are talking warships: from the revolutionary Tudor ships to modern aircraft carriers, and all the innovations along the way.

In this episode of Patented: History of Inventions Dan, a self-confessed Maritime history nerd, joins Dallas on a whistle-stop tour of nearly 200 years of naval history. From the rise of wooden warships, to how these feats of engineering were built and how they transformed the world, forever.
