![]() ![]() Is the GZ a good ship or just significantly weaker than the other tier 8 CVs and in need of buffs? You'd think either the rockets or torpedoes would make up for this, but GZ torpedoes seem to do the lowest damage at the tier besides Implacable, and the rockets seem rather inaccurate. Compare this to Enterprise and Saipan, and even Kaga, which can frequently land 10k+ drops with their bombs. The dive bombers look abysmal, missing both bombs even on well lined up drops and even if they hit it's usually a ricochet or shatter, or only one single citadel. I considered buying GZ, but it just doesn't look worth it, not as strong as the others. The wreck was discovered by a Polish survey ship in July 2006.I have all the tier 8 premium CVs besides the Graf Zeppelin, and I have found that each is fun and interesting in its own way. The Soviet Union raised the ship in March 1946, and she was ultimately sunk in weapons tests north of Poland 17 months later. She remained in the Baltic for the duration of the war with Germany's defeat imminent, the ship's custodian crew scuttled her just outside Stettin in March 1945. Graf Zeppelin was not completed and was never operational due to shifting construction priorities necessitated by the war. Named in honor of Graf (Count) Ferdinand von Zeppelin, the ship was launched on 8 December 1938, and was 85% complete by the outbreak of World War II in September 1939. 1939 proposal: 12 fighters & 30 dive bombers Ĭonstruction on Graf Zeppelin began on 28 December 1936, when her keel was laid down at the Deutsche Werke shipyard in Kiel.1930 proposal: 30 fighters & 12 dive bombers.Graf Zeppelin after her launching on 8 December 1938Ĩ,000 nmi (15,000 km 9,200 mi) at 19 knots (35 km/h 22 mph)
