Summary

Pathe synopsis: No, not an animal - a guided missile now in use by the Royal Navy. We thought how different is this modern navy to the fleet of Nelson’s time. But we compared the two and found an important similarity - youth. Young men fired those heavy cannons - and the men are certainly young who send "Sea Cat" soaring.
