[WIP] H-39, H-44 and O Class
 

I am making the H-39, H-44 classes battleships and the O class battlecruiser.

These ships are basicly enlarged versions of the Bismarck and Scharnhorst, with two smokestacks.

The H-44 and the O class has been scrapped becouse of lack of time and modelling skills.

Here`s the H-39:

and the O Class:

And last the king of the battleships; the H-44

Fell free to make any suggestions.

Enlarged version of the bismark? Are these planned german BB's that never came into exsistance, or did they come in a later post war era?

These were all planned ships that was never build becouse of the urgent need for u-boats.

Got specs?

Well those ought to be fun to watch.

You misunderstand, these are playable. I am pretty much finished, just need some more tweaking. These are for OM. I don`t know if I am gonna make them for normal 1.5

Give Yamato1 the credits for the ships.

Man, feels like SH4 is becoming more like navyfield sooner or later...

Aww man..I'd rather be the one trying to sink them. Playable surface ships don't much interest me. I hope someone makes them TF ships. With a few people working on various US vs germany in atlantic mods some theroretical timelines seem only natural.

You really want to try to sink the H-44? Its has 20 inch guns witch would penetrate the Yamato with ease at any range.

That's only a problem if the H44 can see you... If they don't even know you're there...then it's a viable target...:lurk:

It looks like u have it listed as 16 inch guns?

Besides, I'm not sure at close range they could train 20 inch guns on you, they'd have trouble moving the turrets fast enough. Secondary guns would still kill you quite quickly..probably one hit.

Oh, sorry. I got the wrong ship. Here`s the H-44
