History & Modifications
Graf Zeppelin:
Construction of the ship was suspended in May 1940, was restarted on the 13th May 1942, but was soon
stopped again. After the German surrender, she was loaded with railway cars and other war booty by the
Russians, and towed to Leningrad. En route, the cargo shifted and she foundered.
Later she was raised by the Russians and expended as a target.
Peter Strasser:
The ship was named after the commander of naval airships in WW1. The name was never officially
assigned. She was broken up on the slipway after cancellation.
