Z-52

Z-52 — German Tier X destroyer.

One of the last German destroyers (Zerstörer 1936C type) to be laid down before the end of World War II. She had dimensions that were considered to be quite significant for a ship of her type. Owing to dual-purpose artillery and up-to-date automatic AA mounts, this ship boasted very powerful AA defenses.
