  • I dont know so much but the ships of Sverige-class are rather small, only displease 7200 tons, on the other hand the other battleships you are talking about are displeaseing at around 30000 and 35000 tons.

    And the two cruisers of Tre Kronor-class displeased at 9300, so Sweden haven had any battleships in that mark, correct me if im wrong but the famous pocketbattleships wight in at about 14000 so...

  • I´m sorry, but I cant answer your question...I only know that Sweden has very small ships today...but this battleship (from about 1915) was larger.

  • Ohh, i don't know that they were coming from a french/sweden prince... Perhaps... So you can have little relation with us... Who knows... But don't forget that he has lots of relations with Napoleon... Marechal of the Empire... Nice rank!

    That's true that sweden have a bit french roots.... It's funny :)

  • Yes my friend, the Grand Duke of Luxembourg: Henris mothers (Joséphine-Charlotte) mother was: Princess Astrid of Sweden! Look at the videos and see for yorself...and make your own judgement!

    Viv`la France!!

    Ulf

  • De rien! Bonjour!

    Not so bad your french...

    Au revoir :)

  • Don´t forget my friend...my strong frensh/belgiums (Vallon) roots...

    And don´t forget either...that I believe that I am related to the Royal Family there in Luxemburg...they comes from Jean Baptiste Bernadotte!

    Voila!

  • @MRnissetomte Occasionally you see the Sverige-class described as "coastal battleships", and Jane's listed them as battleships when they were active. But at 7500 tonnes and four 11 inch guns, they cannot compare to a real battleship under normal circumstances. They were designed for operations in the shallow waters of the Baltic Sea. There they would be able to operate freely while a true battleship would be very restricted.

    The Swedish term was Panserskepp - Armoured Ship.

  • @jboshk65 Graf Spee is arguably not an actual battleship but rather an up-gunned heavy cruiser. Then again, Hood wasn't actually a full battleship either.

  • @cocoaandcoffe It's why I favorited it!

  • Mighty ship. Von krusenstjerna. :o)

  • U.S.S PENNSYLVANIA,Most ordinance ever fired by any ship in history

  • @Caecarulf you must be swedish to compare that ugly little dingy to these fine battleships

  • @Caecarulf

    True, we have small ships today, biggest combat vessel are at 4500 tons. but the biggest vessel thats build for pure sea warfare are at 700 tons (Visby class) and our biggest subs in active service are the gotland class at 1500 tons and the new subs (A26) thats comeing in are at 2000 tons so....
