The turn radius and the angle of the deck are both pretty impressive. That's a pretty large ship to be moving like that. The music makes the entire thing seem almost unreal. It reminds me of the opening to Fallout2.

When carriers and other ships are under air attack, the squirmed all over the place trying to be hard targets, at least for torpedos.

The music certainly is incongruous with the events you're witnessing. People are dying in those bomb strikes. Not loosing that carrier was a key stroke in WWII. She was the ONLY functional Carrier for a time following that battle.
