Weapons/Military
Japanese cruiser IJN Mogami
It was the first ship of the oldest heavy cruiser of the old Japanese Navy, and was originally built as a light cruiser under the restrictions of the London Naval Treaty. Construction began on October 27, 1931, sea trials began on March 14, 1934, and was officially commissioned on July 28, 1935. The design was considered a failure in naval architecture because they were too light when they were originally built, and because of the overweight and welded seams that cracked when the main gun fired, all four ships needed to be rebuilt during the first years of service to remain seaworthy. It can also carry three Aichi E16A reconnaissance seaplanes. All of these cruisers were sunk in World War II.
german Z-57 destroyer
It was one of a series of large destroyers planned to be built by the German Navy during World War II. It was originally planned for ocean-going operations in support of large German warships far from the base. The Type 1942 destroyer was designed by the German Navy late in the war to use an all-diesel power system for longer endurance. Due to continued Allied bombardment and resource shortages, the Z-57 and its peers did not actually complete construction. It was canceled in 1944 and dismantled in 1946. The construction plans reflected the German Navy's ambitions for the design and construction of destroyers later in the war, though these plans ultimately failed to materialize.
French Muselier Cruiser
It was named after French admiral Emile mileMuselier. Built before its missile age, it was later replaced by Kolbe-class cruisers. It was equipped with a new 139/65mm DP naval gun and a 100mm/55 model 68 anti-aircraft gun. These weapon configurations enhanced its firepower and air defense capabilities at sea. As a traditional artillery cruiser, it represents the military technology and maritime power of the French Navy of that era.
French battleship "Lorraine"

The first mission was the Doolittle air raid in April 1942, the first American air raid on a Japanese home island and a response to the attack on Pearl Harbor. 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. After the war, this naval gun became the standard main gun caliber for British naval destroyers. The Somnus class would replace the rear torpedo set, equip a more advanced anti-aircraft gun set, and add anti-aircraft firepower and electronics.

He served in the 15th Cruiser Squadron at the end of World War II. He successfully survived and retired after the war. He retired in 1949 and was sold and demolished in 1956.
Chinese aircraft carrier "Haihong"
It was a light aircraft carrier planned by the Chinese Beiyang Navy after World War I. The background of the construction is that the Beiyang Navy has inherited the mantle of the Beiyang Fleet, and after seeing the strength of aviation operations, plans to use the existing hull transformation to enhance the naval strength. 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 and construction provided valuable lessons for future destroyer development for the U.S. Navy.
German heavy cruiser "Admiral Scheer"
It is a member of the German class heavy cruiser, and is often called a "pocket battleship" by the British ". Named after German Admiral Reinhard Schell, he served in the German Navy during World War II. It was launched on 1 April 1933 and commissioned on 12 November 1934. It was designed to circumvent the Treaty of Versailles's restrictions on the tonnage of German ships, while being equipped with powerful firepower and armor. It was dismantled after the war, but due to its large hull, the government had no economic reason to completely salvage the destroyed hull after the war. The wreckage is still buried under the rubble and rubble of the Elbrek district of Kiel city.
German BEOWULF large cruiser
It is a program in the design of D-class armored ships. In response to the construction of the Dunkirk-class battleships by the French Navy, Germany had to make major design changes to the D-class armored ships and built two new armored ships, code-named D and E. The German Navy chose the D5a option equipped with two quad-mounted 283mm guns. Designed and built to counter the new French naval threat, the German Navy's demand and design ambitions for large warships during World War II. However, for a number of reasons, including changes in political and military strategy, these plans ultimately failed to materialize and the BEOWULF was not actually built.
British Bacchus class light cruiser
Named after Bacchus, the god of wine, corresponding to the star Bacchus in the celestial body. In order to make up for the outdated and insufficient firepower of the battle-class destroyers on the main gun fire control and targeting system, the British Navy designed a cruiser for coordination and command of the battle-class destroyers, the Bacchus class. The design was inspired by the Edinburgh-class cruiser's hull construction concept. A six-seat twin-mounted 113mm RP10MarkIV rapid-fire gun is installed along the central axis. The sub-charged ammunition is used to obtain better ballistic performance. It can fire about 15-20 rounds per minute. Due to the poor financial situation of the United Kingdom, ships of this class were not actually built.
British Uranus Super Light Cruiser
Named after the god of the sky in Roman mythology, it corresponds to the celestial planet Uranus. After World War II, the British colonies and territories continued to erupt in revolts, threatening British rule, and the British Navy therefore restarted the design and rearmament of new cruisers. It was the product of Britain's failed struggles. With the introduction of American technology, the N1 127mm rapid-fire gun replaced the slightly obsolete 113mm naval gun. The automatic loader and water cooling device provided a solid guarantee for the continuous firing of the gun, theoretically increasing the firing rate of the gun to 66 rounds per minute. However, because the turret was too heavy, it had to be installed on the ship in the form of a single gun.
British NOX class II light cruiser
Named after the goddess of the night, it is a light cruiser in the first-class design proposal. At the end of the First World War, the British Navy, in response to rumors of the German Navy building high-speed cruisers, redesigned the D-class cruiser and submitted numerous proposals. The NOX class represented a design proposal for the installation of a small caliber rapid-fire naval gun. It is planned to adopt a twin-mounted 113mm/45x diameter QF Mk.I(Mk.IIIUD gun base) gun as a dual-purpose anti-aircraft gun. This artillery uses fixed ammunition and has a firing rate of up to 12 rounds per minute. It is commonly found on aircraft carriers such as HMS Royal Ark and HMS Glory and HMS Glory.
British Challenger 2 main battle tank
It is the main fighting vehicle of the British army and has been in service since 1998. This third-generation main battle tank is known for its excellent protection, firepower and accuracy, and has operated in the Balkans, Iraq and Afghanistan.
