Wrong time of day for most of our history buffs, I think. IIRC, History Channel on Danbooru is earlier in the day.

check back tomorrow, if you have time.

Seeing Yamato and Bismarck bracket and straddle your ship is outright scary... seeing Graf Spee fire at you makes you think you're roughly safe with controllable damage... until that 11 inch shell connects as it did with Exeter that forced the heavy cruiser to limp back to port

Graf Spee wasn't a battleship, it was a heavy cruiser.

But was dub as pocket battleship so i guess that counts?

Armored Cruiser

The Graf Spee was a Panzerschiff (armored ship) before being reclassified as a heavy cruiser.
