Capital example of craft in war (10)
I believe the answer is:
battleship
'capital' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'example of craft in war' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'craft' could be 'ship' (ship is a kind of craft) and 'ship' is present in the answer.
'war' could be 'battle' (I've seen this before) and 'battle' is found in the answer.
This accounts for all the letters.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for battleship that I've seen before include "Large naval vessel" , "Large navy vessel" , "Heavy warship" , "fighting vessel" , "Dreadnought" .)
