Legends_Tirpitz_B_splash.png

Legends_Battleship_Icon2.png Tirpitz B — German • Premium • Tier VII • Battleship.

One of the two mightiest battleships in the German Navy. Akin to the lead ship of her class, Tirpitz had heavy ship armor, powerful artillery, and a high speed. Weak horizontal armor protection was the main drawback of her design, but this was largely offset by improving her AA defenses.
