DKM "Bismarck" - the German battleship

On June 1, 1936 shipyard "Blohm und Woss" in Hamburg in stapel no. 9 placed the keel of the BV 509 project line ship. On February 14, 1939, one of the world's largest liners was launched. The ship is named "Bismarck" in honor of the German chancellor Otto von Bismarck. This chancellor united the divided German lands "with blood and iron". "Bismarck" went to sea for the first time on September 15, 1940. From March 18 to April 1, 1941, tests were carried out in the Baltic Sea, preparing the battleship for its first combat mission. On his only combat trip in May 1941 he sank the British Royal Navy's flagship line cruiser HMS "Hood" in the Danish Straits. The pursuit of the "Bismarck", which began after that, in which almost the entire British Royal Navy participated, ended three days later with the sinking of the German colossus.
