Eiserner Kanzler — Germany · Tier VIII · Battleship

Famous German battleship Bismarck undertook only one combat mission, which began on May 19, 1941, with her departure from the port of Gotenhafen and ended on May 27 with her destruction in battle near the coast of France. In those few days, Bismarck sank the pride of the Royal Navy, battlecruiser Hood; threatened Allied communications in the North Atlantic; and drew nearly every major ship the British Admiralty had available in the area.
