Description
November 12th, Lancasters of Nos 9 and 617 Squadrons fly from Lossimouth. This time the smoke screen was out of action and their were no defending fighters. One Lancaster was shot down. The first bombs narrowly missed the target, but then, in rapid succession, came three direct hits. A column of steam and smoke shot up to about 300 feet and within a few minutes the ship had started to list badly. About 10 minutes after the first bomb struck, the Tirpitz had completely turned turtle with only the hull visible from the air.
