Game of military hardware (11)
I believe the answer is:
battleships
If this is the answer, I'm afraid I cannot explain it.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for battleships that I've seen before include "Fighting vessels" , "Game in which naval vessels are located and sunk" .)
I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
