Deutschland: Tier VI German Heavy Cruiser

The first member of the famed German 'Pocket Battleships.' An advanced hull design with extensive use of welding, and diesel engines instead of a conventional turbine power plant allowed the Reichsmarine to outthink the restrictions placed on Germany with The Treaty of Versailles and build ships that no other nation had expected them to. Their impressive characteristics—namely, the use of 283mm Battleship grade main guns—made them formidable opponents and triggered a naval arms race, helping to influence the Capital ship designs of the 1930s.

More Details

She conducted a raid into the Atlantic Ocean in 1939, with limited success, before being renamed to Lutzow in 1940. She spent most of the war operating in and around Norway, where, during the invasion, she was damaged by the same defenses that sunk Blucher. She and the Heavy cruiser Admiral Hipper took part in the Battle of the Barents Sea in 1942.
Later in the war, she operated in support of German land forces on the Eastern front. She was sunk by RAF bombers in April 1945.
