Basically yes, except the sinking part although the engagement between British and German units in this case is quite possible.
here I was talking about scripted historical events in SH5/TWoS...

This is the screenshot of Bismark and Prinz Eugen in Baltic sea few days after their departure from Gotenhafen.

For example, I happened to be in Norway at the exact location of the Tirpitz (sister ship of the Bismarck) in a fjord, but...no Tirpitz. So I must assume the ship is not in the game - or the traffic spawning is also limited to the '50 km rule' saying that you first need to be > 50 km away or no traffic will spawn. Does this apply in SH5 like in SH3?

If I remember correctly Tirpitz transition to Norway is scripted but I don't think she is added to campaign files as a static unit in Norway. I could add it though but it is quite hard to match SH world map with the real one, especially in Norway due to very razed coast...
In short, I was pleasantly surprised to see that SH5/OHII campaign files already have large number of scripted historical events and units transitions.
