Today we look at a German battleship class that was considered by the British as Battle Cruisers during the Second World War, since they were under gunned, yet the two battle ships of the Scharnhorst class were the most successful German World War 2 battleships and inflicted more damage than the famous Bismarck class. The Scharnhorst and Gneisenau were able to sink not only 1 carrier and 2 destroyers, but also several merchant ships as well.
