@Dilophi against Drachinifel's preference to the Scharnhorst-class with 2 forward turrets and one astern, this makes not a big difference to the Bismarck/Hipper-class design. Beside their combat-abilities German warships were the most beautiful. The superstructure of Bismarck and Scharnhorst is not so different. As usual in design questions the Italians had ovbiously an advantage, too. The main aspect is the hull's shape. German warship hulls are more comparable to pretty-female-shaped yacht hulls. British hulls look like the interesting taste of British cuisine.

As a symbolic gesture austrian troops occupied Germany with a handshake. The separation of Austria happened due to chancellor Bismarck who wanted to avoid an Habsburg guy on the throne of the Reich.

@genericpersonx333 the US navy controllers were not enthusiastic about Prinz Eugen's abilities. What the most of the participants, who answered to you, do not understand, is the relativeness. US navy, as airforce and army, could rely on never-ending supplies and most of the infinite ressources were wasted, but who cares. Small countries as Germany, Italy or Japan with no empire in their back, had very limited ressources. So, we should evalue their achievements under those circumstances. This is more evident, when we notice that soviet and us military after-war-development is based mainly on robbed German technology, one of the main reasons for this war. It would take several annual US budgets to compensate in favour of the Germans the world's biggest bucaneering ever.

@Shonono Yeetus most times in germanic languages the first syllable is emphasized, same here in the case of the name Tirpitz. No indigene German would understand a romanic spelling on the last/second syllable. In english it is mixed. The french word fiance is romanic, so emphazised on the last/third syllable. But the germanic/westphalic word "window", which means "Windeye"-Windoch-Windauge is emphazised on the first syllable. In spite of the Germanic use of the Brits the Germans use the latin word "Fenster", comes from "fenestra".

@seabass9916 Iowa class battle-ships are pretty, but not the most pretty ones. The reason is very simple the short beam of 33 meters in relation to the length of 270 meters. This is caused by the Panama-Canal-ability. There is no real curvature around midships. As you can see here in the Wiki picture https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iowa-class_battleship.

@ivlivscaesar5898 lol .... :-)

@kevinwebster7868 this is a wrong perception. There were not so many Nazi-Empires. The main fascist Empire on the planet, was the British fascist Empire, so you define british products as ugly. The follower of the British Empire is the US global Empire, the Imperium Americanum. So, do you think really, our US American friends are not able to establish any beauty?

One of the propellers of Prinz Eugen is made out at the German naval-memorial of Laboe near the city of Kiel at the beach of the Baltic. Beside Prinz Eugen's propeller, U-995 is placed on the same beach, open for visit. And the monument is very impressive. Please have a look here guys https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laboe_Naval_Memorial

@rpm1796 the Golden Hind is the beginning of lower forecastles and reduced stern-sections in combination with an improved artillery, which caused better sailing abilities. So the Golden Hind set new standards. In the case of the Hood, which is one of the most beautiful British battleships, we do not find so many inventions. But Hood differs lightyears from those ugly Ducklings of the Nelson class BBs.

@kevinanderson3849 Captain Brinkmann was a tough guy and did not needed the congrats of a coward, who dishonoured his ships, officers and crews.

@kevinanderson3849 ok, we all see your fine arguments. Ask Drach, every British admiral acting as Lütjens, guilty of cowardice facing the enemy, would have been shot on his quarterdeck.

@kevinanderson3849 As an idiot as you are, you surely miss any argument, only personal accusations. Do research, then think, then write. But please spare us your useless comments on a historical channel.

@ijohneb very simple, fascism comes from "fasces", a weapon of the bodyguards protecting the Roman upper-class-people. It represents an imperial approach. And do you think the Empress of India was elected in India? The main "fasces" (a plurale tantum) of the British Empire was the Royal Navy.

@awuma Vanguard was the most beautifull Brit-BB ever, a top, let us say, a German design. You are right, except Vanguard, but except Vanguard's main guns.

@drjerry5389 Many rightist people like the ethnocracy Israel. You see, the Zionists fought against the Nationalsocialists and 3 years later, after the III. Reich was finished, the Zionists etablished an own (jewish) III. Reich with voting rights. Funny, isn't it? Israel's army, mainly the tank-commanders and the airforce commodores are educated by the experiences of Guderian and Galland.

@drjerry5389 I see. Swastikas are thousends of years old, you will find them everywhere on the planet, mainly in East-India, in Germanic countries it is known as a rune. In spiritual aspects it means the wheel of time. You find the major dispute between Germanics and Semites in the Bible, when Kain stroke Abel dead, it is a metapher, an old clash of cultures. Germanics are sedentary tribes, Hebrews nomades. The Hebrew God Adonai "expelled" Kain. I like Israel, because everyone should have a reservation for his own kind. But i sea the political situation very relaxed, because i have no influence on it :-)

@xeraphyx7903 Scharnhorst is the most beautiful BB ever. Watch the comradeship (Kameradschaft) Gneisenau - movie on yt.

@wstavis3135 Watch the beam, the curvature is decisive for a warship's beauty. The Scharnhorsts have a max. beam of 30 meters, the Iowas one of 33 meters & Bismarck one of 36 meters, means Bismarck could not enter the Panama-Canal (the floodgates had 35 meters). In the midsection the hull of the Iowas is flat, constructed for the transpassing of the Canal. But this lack of curvature means a lack of beauty. The constructed curvature of German warships made them to the most beautiful. No one can exclude a personal, undefined emotion. For example i like the KGVs, i do not know why.

@generalwadehampton.2578 The Hippers are very different from each other. PE was the longest of all Hippers, looks more slim, 212 meters meant, she could not develop so much speed, 32,2 knots. Blücher was the shorty with 202 meters & the widest beam of 22 meters & developed 32,8 knots.

@Drachinifel it sounds like tier-pit-'s

@Shonono Yeetus the spelling is like Tier - and Pit's....

@Shonono Yeetus No, Sir, in this case the english emphazising is similar to the german. In Drach's voicing is a common tendency of a majority of english native speakers to anglosize the i. If do you want a more anglo-saxon speaking (instead of normanic), which sounds more german, hear some Yorkshire-people as Sean Bean.
