What do you think would have happened if the Nazis got control of the Royal Navy, with Japan breathing down our necks in the Pacific?

Not a whole hell of a lot. The ships were largely obsolete and the Germans wouldn't have had crews enough to man them anyway.
By 1944, the US navy was superior to every other naval force in the world--combined.

What do you think would have happened if the Nazis got control of the Royal Navy, with Japan breathing down our necks in the Pacific? To play the "what if" game, what if the Nazis had control of the formidable French Navy, instead of it being destroyed in North African anchorage, while the Vichy regime negotiated with the Nazis?
Churchill was roundly criticized for ordering the destruction of the French navy at anchorage, with hundreds of French navy casualties, who had recently been allies.
