Battle of Tsushima · why
A much later Korean navy exists in waters Togo once commanded -- history, not a live ORBAT. A later war in the same peninsula's waters and politics -- not a sequel of 1905, but a reminder that this strait stayed a great-power door.

European commentary that "Asiatics" had won a line-of-battle fight is a primary source of 1905 racism. Quote it as evidence, not as analysis to repeat. Keep Radio and range pinned to 1905-05-27-28 (Night torpedoes): Destroyers finish cripples. Battle of Tsushima remains a 27-28 May 1905 file in Tsushima Strait, between Korea and Japan, not a playbook.
