Battleship Tirpitz

Tirpitz was the second Bismarck class battleship of the German Kriegsmarine during World War II. The ship was named after Admiral Alfred von Tirpitz and went through the entire war in various bases in Norway.

History
The Tirpitz was launched April 1, 1939 as a commerce raider to stop Allied merchant shipping in the North Atlantic. The Tirpitz caused some fear for the United Kingdom and the ship was bombed and capsized on November 12, 1944 by the British.

Game Info
In Call of Duty the British go onto the Tirpitz on an undercover mission called "Ship" and the British soldiers try to destroy the engines and the AA Rader controls for the Tirpitz. The British kill a lot of Germans planting explosives in the ship and soon destroy some control boxes and kill the captain of the Tirpitz taking a logbook he had. Soon the British leave on a boat and the mission is over. The Captain Price in this Call of Duty 1 was "Killed" in the ships armory, but he returns from the "Dead" in CoD2. This is most likly a contiuity error.
