    There are five nuclear powers prepared to end Germany if she gets froggy again.

    And Germany is under the American nuclear umbrella?
    America spends, what, 4 or more percent on protecting European
    and Asian allies?

    I think escape velocity is something like seventeen and a half thousand
    miles per hour. That would just about melt anything fired from a cannon.

    I wouldn't say all aspects. Now I'm much more familiar with German WW II tech, so I can't say for sure how modern German tech is, but German tech especially in that period was often thought to be overly complex and unreliable. You also need to take into account design flaws, Bismark should not have had its rudder jammed by a single torpedo hit even though it was certainly a lucky hit. For sure German tech in that period was advanced in certain fields compared to other countries, but some other countries had tech that was more advanced than Germany and they had a larger affect on the battlefield.

    Germany is like an Ant Farm to the United States, You guys build a Battleship, it's actually belongs to the United States, because we allowed you to build it. Being the honorable Stewards of Germany, we give you just enough freedoms for you to develop some Pride, but as soon as you step across the line, the Good Ol USA is ready to give you a Hot One right on the Ass.

    NATO asks for ability to target hypersonic weapons. This platform is supposed to fullfill that.

    What is Bizmark? There was no ship called Bizmark?

    I assume you mean Bismark, a ship that sunk itself so it doesnt fall into enemy hands.

    You have a problem with that practice? Last time i checked thats principle for all navies.

    The british flagship Hood should not have been ripped apart from a single shot either.

    Big words coming from a country that has no functional infrastructure and people living in plywood houses.

    What are you gonna do with a battleship? Im not saying it isn't cool- battleships are bad-ass and so are railguns. The two are like peanut butter and and chocolate. But they're just not very useful today...

    Its supposed to protect NATO area from hypersonic weapons. Its the most practical way to destroy an incoming hypersonic weapon.

    You used the term "battle ship," not warship. Battleship is a very specific type of warship.


    frig·ate
    /ˈfriɡit/

    Learn to pronounce

    noun
    noun: frigate; plural noun: frigates
    a warship with a mixed armament, generally heavier than a destroyer (in the US Navy) and of a kind originally introduced for convoy escort work.


    bat·tle·ship
    /ˈbadlˌSHip/

    Learn to pronounce

    noun
    noun: battleship; plural noun: battleships
    a heavy warship of a type built chiefly in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, with extensive armor and large-caliber guns.

    On the left is a frigate, on the right a battleship. End of lesson...

    It was alone, sourounded by dozens of enemies, it sunk itself so the enemy doesnt get it. It ripped the enemy flagship in half with a single shot.

    From your own explanation, a frigate is a warship. Dude do you even get how idiotic your post is?

    I say a frigate id a warship.

    Your response is:

    noun: frigate; plural noun: frigates
    a warship with a mixed armament, generally heavier than a destroyer (in the US Navy) and of a kind originally introduced for convoy escort work.


    Dude get lost. When a man has a certain level of IQ, dealing with such rubbish can give you a headache. Bugger off, i have a 10h shift ahead of me and im not in the modd today to dumbing down myself.

    You used the term "battle ship," not warship. Battleship is a very specific type of warship. Learn the language or get a better translator. Refer to Rule 1 when in doubt:
