I'M BACK ! Finally ! ^^
I had some troubles with my computer lately, and it seemed as it would not want to run Simpleplanes properly, after some serious modifications it started to work well again, and to excuse my long absence, i give you this beast of a ship.

ZNS Jormungandr (Circa 1943)

Story :

Design Z-155, popularly known as the "Jormungandr" class, was a class of battleships Built by the Z Navy. In keeping with the Navy's long tradition, they were designed to be qualitatively superior to battleships that might be faced in battle. As part of this, the class would have been armed with fifteen 410mm (17.0 in) guns. Design work on the Z-155s began after the preceding "Doomsday" class in 1938–1939 and was mostly finished by early 1941, when the Z Navy began focusing on heavy warships that could sustain major damage without sinking. Three Z-155's were laid down, and many details of the class' design were kept secret until very recently.

Although five Z-155-class vessels had been planned in 1937, only three battleships were ever completed. All three vessels were built in extreme secrecy, to prevent Enemy intelligence officials from learning of their existence and specifications. The three ships : "Jormungandr" "Leviathan" and "Hydra" were all Commisioned in 1936 and Completed in 1942. They displaced around 78000 Tons and immidiately joined their respective fleets. Despite their enormous size, their armour was very durable, and they could fight back efficiently. They all served during the war, but only the "Leviathan" is still alive today.

    I don't think it's a good idea to set up a three-stage main guns because if you do that in the real world it's going to make the third turret hard to carry, all in all, it's a beautiful ship.
