You can almost see Bismarck in the bow shots. From what I remember, Busmarck was built on an updated plan of SMS Bayern (1916) with Hindenburg as the last commissioned in 1917.
There some elements, indeed. Bismarck shared elements with Bayern, although you can say it was not just an updated copy.
Hindenburg was no Bayern-class battleship, it was a Derfflinger-class battlecruiser
Schade um dies schönen Schiffe. Den Schlepper Seefalke gibt es noch. Das ist jetzt ein Museumsschiff in Bremerhaven.
Very impressive salvage! (I’m told-as I’m not exactly an expert) 😉
You'd have thought they'd have kept 1 of the gun turrets as a war trophy & put it on display somewhere as a memorial, & people could still visit it today, instead of junking the whole ship as they did. The British State has no imagination
The Hindenburg, the last Derfflinger class cruiser, is regarded the best capital ship, or at least battle cruiser, of WW 1. Named after a living person, she would have been valuable addition to the German battle fleet!
The Queen Elizabeth class battleships were better. But Hindenburg was certainly the best battlecruiser built until Hood came along
@@bigships Quite another thing are these German names: the Von der Tann, the Derfflinger, the Hindenburg, and above all the SCHARNHORST and the GNEISENAU. British names were - and are - similarly beautiful with the Invincible, the Prince od Wales and the Duke of York leading the line of battle.
