The British warship that was sunk during the Vietnam War was HMS Coventry. It was a Royal Navy destroyer that was attacked and sunk by Argentine aircraft during the Falklands War in 1982, not the Vietnam War. However, the British did not lose any warships during the Vietnam War, as they were not directly involved in that conflict.
The 2 British Capital Ships sunk were the Prince of Wales & Repulse. They were sunk by Japanese bombers. It was a major blow for the British in the Far East along with the loss of Singapore & Hong Kong.....
The first major German warship sunk in WW2 was the "pocket battleship" Admiral Graf Spee, scuttled by her crew outside Montevideo, Uruguay on 17 December 1939.
The last U.S. warship sunk by enemy fire was the USS Samuel B. Roberts (FFG-58), which was struck by an Iranian missile during the Persian Gulf War on April 14, 1988. Although the ship was not completely destroyed, it sustained significant damage and was later decommissioned. Prior to that, the USS Cole (DDG-67) was attacked in a terrorist bombing in 2000, but it was not sunk.
Lusitania was not a warship, it was actually sunk by enemy action, and civilians were on board. It was also sunk after a warning had been given.
Probably the aircraft carrier USS Enterprise; the only survivor out of the three sisters, USS Yorktown (sunk at the Battle of Midway), USS Hornet (sunk at the Battle of Santa Cruz). Much to the heartbreak of most US Sailors of WW2, she was scrapped (re-cycled) in 1959.
It got sunk because the bismark sunk the flag ship of the royal navy,(Hood), the british then sent every war ship available to sink bismark. At 9.00am on the 21st of may, the bismark was sunk by the british ships.
Battlecruiser DKM Schornhorst (actually went down fighting). Bismarck and Graf Spee both committed suicide (sunk themselves/scuttled).
