Great video The KGV's are the most under rated BB's of WW2. Too many concentrate on their 14inch guns and use this as a basis for their attack on the class but don't do the research to find out just how effective these guns were. In many ways better than their opponents 15inch weapons. As you stated, their armour was the heaviest in the world until the Yamato class came along and the only ship to be lost was sunk by a combination of a very heavy air attack (which would have sunk any capital ship at the time) and some bad luck in just where the torpedo hit. In battle the class did everything that was asked of them and did it well. With hindsight it's clear 9x14inch guns in 3 turrets would have been a better choice as well as a raked bow and more spacious turrets for the secondary guns. But hindsight is 20/20 after all. I could fix all this if I could get my TARDIS working. lol.

Well WoWs is a game with only a tenuous contact with reality. Their world view is very simple 1. Russian ships are godly 2. German and Japanese ships are demi-gods 3. Most others are...acceptable 4. British ships are punching bags and jokes to be nerfed They really seem to hate anything British. Jealousy probably.

@CorePathway Helped cripple and then sink Bismarck, crushed Scharnhorst, frightened Tirpitz so it only left its hiding place when it was safe to do so. Did better than most other heavy Naval guns. Germans BS a lot about hos "superior" their technology in WW2 was.
