Captain Ethan forgot one thing: the faster and more isolated a warship is, the more conspicuous it becomes, and the easier it is to be attacked.
For enemy aircraft carriers, speed means potential escape, evasion, and even posing a threat.
Being alone means that when bombers launch an attack on it, there will be no other ships' anti-aircraft fire to provide cover.
The battleship "Canada" was over ten kilometers ahead of the formation, and the bombers of the French Army flying in the air immediately spotted it. Subsequently, over a dozen bombers chased it down and launched an attack.
Captain Ethan attempted to use the serpentine maneuver of "Reputation" to avoid the bombing.
However, "Canada" is a true battleship, with a speed of only 22.75 knots, far slower than "Reputation" at 31.5 knots. Despite all efforts, it could not evade the bombing.
