Based on the designs for the Bismark-Class battleships captured in Wilhelmshaven near the end of WW2, the Prevoygrad class battleships are very similar to the famous battleships Bismark and Tirpitz.
There are only two of this class active, the other two, HDS Johburg and HDS New Slough having been decommissioned in 1966 and 1987 respectivly.
