Clash of Ironclads: Battle of Hampton Roads 1862

Thanks for watching, if you would like to see more videos like this, please like and subscribe!. After months of development, the Confederate Navy unveils its secret weapon against the Union Navy blockade of Hampton Roads, Virginia: the CSS Virginia, an ironclad warship designed from the keel of the former USS Merrimack. On the first day of the Battle of Hampton Roads, this new weapon is unleashed against the Federal fleet, wreaking havoc in the waters around Fort Monroe and Norfolk. However, on the second day, the Union Navy lets loose its own ironclad warship - the USS Monitor, against the Virginia. The ensuing naval action will have a resounding effect on the history of naval warfare, as all navies across the globe look to the clash of ironclads in Hampton Roads. The age of the ironclad is at at hand.
