Regarding Bismarck one has to remember that not only it got Hood under water but actually got a King George V class BS to run - so assessment who would win KG V vs Bismarck one on one has history to show us clearly that Bismarck was a better ship. Also if Yamamoto whom had issues hitting anything is not on the list why would Bismarck whom not only sunk Hood but also damaged Prince of Wales in the same battle would be. Also Bismarck was far tougher ship to kill then KG V class - Japanese managed to critically cripple POW with single air torpedo! Lucky, yes, but it took just 3 more air torpedos and a single bomb to take here out. That is it. One has to remember that 11 (!!!) torpedos did not take out Bismarck (it was scuttled) in addition to at least 150 hits by BB main guns! Certainly Bismarck was way, way, way (way) more survivable BB then KG V class BB. I think KG V class should be on the list if anyone even thinks of including Bismarck.
