Germany Cruiser
Prinz Eugen, the third Admiral Hipper-class cruiser, was built according to a reworked design. On May 24, 1941, together with battleship Bismarck, the cruiser participated in the Battle of the Denmark Strait, where HMS Hood perished. In February 1942, the cruiser effectively navigated through the English Channel but fell victim to a torpedo fired by British submarine HMS Trident while en route to Norway. Subsequently, on May 7, 1945, Prinz Eugen surrendered to the British Navy in Copenhagen. After the end of World War II, the ship was transferred to the U.S., and in 1946, she participated in a nuclear test at Bikini Atoll.
