Good one, Charles,

Found in the related section of Youtube a color vid of the Gneisenau

I just watched other videos of the Gneisenau in motion and this class of ships sit really low in the water and cut it like a razor,nice lines to.Then you look at the British ships they look boxey except for the new King class.

Well, the Hood was a class on it's own. it shows that the British had some really beautiful ships, too.

Supposedly the Hood was a battlecruisers, but is think it was more like a battleship.

The Richelieu, the best french battleship:

Hood was intended to be the first of four 'Admiral' class BCs. The other three vessels were cancelled at the end of WW1.

She looks a bit like an Arethusa with triple guns. Clearly a British design

Was comissioned in abril 1939 , we almost get the ship confiscated by the war needs, almost.
