This peculiar characteristic is reflected in War Thunder, where the Scharnhorst's mobility, protection, and fast-firing guns made her a formidable heavyweight mid-to-close range brawler.īeing an interwar battleship design, the Scharnhorst is exceptionally well-protected, especially when compared to the Great War-era dreadnoughts that are quite common at her BR.Įxternally, the Scharnhorst is clad with 50 mm of armour at the deck and 35 mm at the port and starboard sides. The smaller calibre of main guns is compensated by an improved rate of fire.Īlthough the Scharnhorst is almost universally classed as a battleship in real life due to her protection, her fast top speed and smaller armaments compared to her contemporaries in 1930s caused the British to classify the ship as a battlecruiser. However, restriction imposed by the Treaty of Versailles (and as Germany were unable to built any large calibre guns at that time due to the lack of industrial capabilities) forced the Kriegsmarine to fit her with smaller 283 mm guns. The Scharnhorst (along with her sister ship Gneisenau) was actually designed as a battleship right from the start by the Kriegsmarine. It was introduced in Update 'Winged Lions'. Some have predicted the ship could vanish in a matter of decades as holes yawn in the hull and sections disintegrate.The Scharnhorst-class, Scharnhorst, 1943 is a rank V German battlecruiser Since the wreckage’s discovery in 1985, it has been slowly succumbing to metal-eating bacteria. The expedition was OceanGate’s third annual voyage to chronicle the deterioration of Titanic, which struck an iceberg and sank in 1912, killing all but about 700 of the roughly 2,200 passengers and crew. In June 2022, he went into space on Blue Origin’s New Shepard rocket. In March 2021, he and ocean explorer Victor Vescovo dived to the lowest depth of the Mariana Trench.
