Weapons/Military
Japanese battlecruiser IJN Amagi
Originally a battlecruiser planned by the Japanese Navy, it belonged to the Tiancheng class.

Unlike the sister ship USS Chicheng (which later became the IJNAkagi aircraft carrier), the Tiancheng suffered severe damage in the Great Kanto Earthquake of 1923, resulting in a damaged keel that was ultimately beyond repair. As a result, plans to build the Sky City were canceled and it was dismantled in 1924. The Tiancheng-class plan and the fate of the Tiancheng reflected the tensions of the time between the naval arms race and treaty restrictions, as well as the unintended effects of natural disasters on military planning.

He continued to fight in the Pacific theater, participating in historic campaigns such as the Battle of Midway, but suffered a fatal blow in the Battle of the Santa Cruz Islands in October 1942.
British light cruiser Somnus
Named after the god of sleep, it was based on a project to modernize the British Navy's Dido-class and Edinburgh-class light cruisers. Originally planned to be equipped with 133mm naval guns, but because their lower firing rate could not cope with the threat posed by the rapid development of aviation technology in the late World War II, all naval guns were replaced with 113mm RP10MarkIV naval guns.

With a displacement of about 15,000 tons, it is based on the enlarged hull design of the cruisers "Ninghai" and "Zhaohe" and is equipped with a full-scale flight deck. Reflecting the Beiyang Navy's pursuit of modern naval aviation power, although it was not actually built in the end, it has a place in the history of the Chinese Navy and marks the early exploration of the concept of aircraft carrier by the Chinese Navy.
german Z-56 destroyer
The German Third Reich Navy's destroyer leader Z-56 was the last fleet destroyer designed by the German Navy during World War II, belonging to Type 1944. It was intended to be used against Allied destroyers, especially large, heavily armed destroyers against Britain and France. It is equipped with 8 128mm high-level dual-purpose naval guns, which have excellent air and sea firepower. At the same time, the hull also has light armor protection, which greatly improves the survivability of warships. The design emphasized firepower and protection, but in the course of the war, due to resource and time constraints, the construction of Z-56 and its class ships was slow and ultimately could not be completed.

The design inherits the characteristics of the general class of the Hipper Navy, but has been modernized, with the addition of cruise missile and anti-ship missile launchers and updated electronic equipment. As one of the planned cruisers, if completed, it will be an important surface combat ship for the German Navy during World War II. Due to the course of the war and the allocation of resources, it was ultimately not built, as was the case with other planned ships, and remained in the drawing and planning stages. Reflecting the German Navy's demand and design ambitions for large surface ships during World War II
German Hildebrand Defense Ship
It is a coastal defense ship of the German Navy and belongs to the Siegfried class. They were the first real major battleships built by Germany and the last before Kaiser Wilhelm II began a large-scale naval construction program. Equipped with three 24cm main guns, although the firepower is not particularly strong, but the first German ships to install the main gun in the closed turret. During World War I, these old ships were still used for coastal defense, and all ships survived. As they were too old and no longer suitable for further military service, most were disassembled, while some were converted into civilian transport vessels.
German FRITHJOF large cruiser
The large cruiser FRITHJOF of the German Third Reich Navy was a ship planned to be built during World War II. It was originally a planned large cruiser, but due to the frequent malfunctions of the main gun turret of the German Navy's first large cruiser Beowulf in actual use, the Germans urgently canceled the construction of the second ship FRITHJOF. The original plan adopted D6 design scheme, equipped with triple 283mm main gun turret. However, due to technical problems and the impact of the war process, it was not completed, and only some design drawings and models were handed down.
