German destroyers coming soon

V-25

This ship was designed for escorting the battle fleet and belonged to the most numerous series of destroyers in the German Navy. She boasted a very high speed for her time. Initially, ships of this class carried weak artillery, but, during World War I, many destroyers belonging to this class were re-equipped with more powerful guns.

G-101

This destroyer was built in Germany for the Argentine Navy. However, she was commissioned into the Imperial German Navy at the outbreak of World War I. Compared to V-25-class destroyers, she was larger in size and had more guns, but was slower.

V-170

The lead ship in the last series of destroyers laid down for the Imperial German Navy. She retained the main armaments of G-101-class destroyers, but featured an increased displacement and a higher speed.

T-22

This multipurpose ship was capable of performing a wide range of tasks, from escorting capital ships, to carrying out reconnaissance operations. In the German Navy, she was officially classified as a "fleet torpedo boat". The ship boasted a powerful torpedo armament,but her artillery armament was relatively weak.

Ernst Gaede

One of the designs for the "1934 type" destroyer. The ship was designed to be relatively large for her type and featured a very powerful artillery armament of 150 mm cruiser caliber guns. This caliber was unusual for destroyers.

Leberecht Maass

Первый эсминец нового поколения (тип 1934), заложивший основы развития кораблей этого класса в германских ВМС до конца Второй мировой войны. Благодаря большим размерам и прочной конструкции, обладал высокой живучесть

Z-23

Developed from the Leberecht Maass-class destroyers (1936A type), this ship had larger dimensions and greater firepower compared to her prototype. She received 150 mm main gun mounts, but retained the torpedo armament of her predecessor.

Z-46

A well balanced design for a destroyer (1936C type) intended for operations on the high seas. Her major distinction from the preceding classes was her artillery armament, comprising of up-to-date and dual-purpose main battery turret mounts.

Z-52

Один из последних германских эсминцев, заложенных до конца Второй мировой войны. Имел значительные для кораблей своего класса размеры. Мощь его ПВО обеспечивалась за счёт универсальной артиллерии и новых автоматических зенитных установок.
