@m4mihulja so let me get this straight hood which was designed during ww1 and completed as a battlecruiser , in ww2 it comes a bb because you think a modern battleship is no different than a ww1 battlecruiser????????? for the last time also the hood did not have the same armour protection of a battleship thats why she was a fucken battlecrusier, she was heavy because of the size of ther engines. Modern bb engines got alot lighter and more powerfull.
@m4mihulja like i have told you countless times Kongo had massive redevelopment during 27-40 and was brought up to battleship standard and reclassed. You agreed with me Hood was bc in ww1 yes? some bc were heavier than bb's and i told you why, the weight of the engines needed to get to the required speed, well just because battleship tech gets better and are able to steam the same speed as bc doesn't suddenly make Hood a bb, in the end Hood in ww2 was just an old battlcruiser.
@m4mihulja I am engaged in a traditional Brit pass time called "taking the piss"But back to more serious matters,believe it or not you and I can probably agree on something if the Brit definition of a BC is used then the Alaska is a BC as it was designed to hunt down a class of IJN cruisers that were never built.The USN called them large cruisers though.
@m4mihulja Renown in particular has not remotely the armour of a WW2 era BB as built it was a tin clad even by WW1 standards.A WW2 era RN fast BB had decks up to 150mm belt 380mm this was almost 7m deep.Renowns belt was only 225mm thick.
What's the name of the music o atleast where'd it come from?

@uchimix Fusu instead of Nagato or the NC SD and even the old Rod/Nelson is a very strange choice.

@pramboy09 These were BB's in WWII:
Hood - 8x 380mm, 20-350mm, 30kt
Kongo - 8x 350mm, 50-350mm, 30kt
Renown - 6x 380mm, 50-350mm, 30kt
ALL of those were BATTLESHIPS in WWII, due to having SAME armament, armor, speed and weight like a BB.

@pramboy09 Looks like you don't understand this even a little.
Hood couldn't be a BC in time of WWII, because the development of ship's in WWII grew rapidly, and tactics of naval warfare along with it.
Ships became longer and heavier with stronger armament and armor.
This has absolutely nothing to do with upgrades and modifications, this has to do with advance of naval warfare and ships between WWI and WWII.
