Had to look this one up, the Taranto raid. Still, sinking Italian battleships only deserves partial credit.
British biplanes are what disabled the Bismarck, the prize battleship of the Germans.

Speaking of the Bismarck, I'm amazed at what a folly the Nazi H class Battleships were. Utterly useless waste. The term Pink Elephants comes to mind.
Edit: I should have said Bismarck Class not H class. I was thinking the Bismarck and Tirpitz were the smaller step wise progression of the H- Class. They are actually a lower sized class.

Yes, but he said biplanes sinking battleships, not disabling them.
HMS Dorsetshire fired the killing blow although by that time the Bismarck was a burning wreck, courtesy of the Rodney and King George V.
