Read full ship history
Recognizing the importance of building aircraft carriers, the German leadership sent a group of experts to Japan to study the implementation of this ship type. The first aircraft carrier received the name Graf Zeppelin during her launch ceremony. During the construction, the ship design underwent various modifications, including the replacement of the original stem with an "Atlantic" one and the addition of external bulges. The unfinished ship was scuttled in Stettin before the city was captured by the Red Army. After the war, the carrier was raised and thoroughly examined in the U.S.S.R. The plans to complete the ship were abandoned, and she was later destroyed as a training target.
