While returning from an unsucessful attempt to locate the artic convoys PQ12 and QP8, on the 11th March 1942 the Tirpitz was attacked by aircraft from HMS Victorious. They did no damage.

The question - what if they either sank her, or did a Bismarck and crippled her so she could be sunk by the Home fleet.

What effects would this have on the war at sea and would this see different construction by the british ie no Vangaurd but prehaps 1 or 2 Malta class carriers?

One thing I see is more and better British units in the Indian ocean.
