On September 23, 1941, the renowned German Stuka pilot Hans-Ulrich Rudel delivered the decisive blow to the Marat. His 1,000 kg bomb penetrated the ship's "steam tower," detonating in the forward magazine and causing the ship to sink in shallow water. Despite being sunk, the Marat's forward gun turrets remained operational. After being refloated, she was used as a stationary artillery battery, providing crucial gunfire support to Soviet troops defending Leningrad during the siege. #reel #reels #
