]http://images.quizilla.com/T/TJHairball/1072351555_richelieu.jpg Richelieu class (Richelieu, Jean Bart)

Elegant, distinctive, innovative, and excellent. The premier french battleship, and one of very few battleships actually built that respected the 35,000 ton displacement limitation set forth in the Washington Treaty.

The Richelieu sported numerous unique systems, such as foil-skinned bouyant foam capsules to prevent taking on too much water from torpedo hits, excellent void and and water filled torpedo blisters, exceptionally well designed armor, some of the best (and longest range) 15 inch guns ever built with a unique loading system. Although it started life with a relatively weak anti-aircraft system on par with the Vittorio Veneto, it was refitted by the Allies during its rather eventful history to carry a much heavier anti-aircraft suite. This class was retired in the 1950s-1960s, with the Richelieu being finally scrapped in 1970.

Yamato class (IJN Yamato) With a main armament consisting of nine 18.1/45 guns, the heaviest displacement of any battleship ever built, the Yamato is the monster of the battleship world. More armor, heavier weapons, and superior optics made this battleship something nobody else wanted to get close to. In the end, torpedos and bombers proved its end as aircraft carriers supplanted battleships as the kings of the sea. Few warships of today outmass it, and none have ever carried bigger guns or heavier armor. The Yamato was overawing beyond any doubt. The third planned Yamato class battleship was actually completed as an aircraft carrier.

Yeah i'm ****ing good.

Pride and joy of Nazi Germany. (Bismarck and Tirpitz)

A legendary ship that sank the famous HMS Hood, and the most powerful German warship ever built. A crew topping 2000 men, full displacement just past 50,000 tons, and four paired 15 inch guns laid out a flexible and potent warship, potentially a match for just about any other warship in the North Sea. Unfortunately, in spite of good German optics and impressive statistics, the Bismark ended up getting toasted. Poorly supported by a relatively weak German navy, it also suffered from poor radar, bad fire control, and poor deck protection from long ranged fire. The Bismarck was designed with an eye towards the Baltic battles of WWI, and would have done very well in that situation.

Gangut The Gangut class was the largest native class of battleship actually used by the USSR in WWII. They also served in WWI, but underwent extensive upgrades and modification over the years. With four triple 12 inch guns, the Gangut carried light firepower but potentially the highest overall rate of fire of any battleship in terms of heavy shells per minute. A WWI workhorse, the Gangut class was re-used throughout WWII, providing surface bombardment to support the Soviet advance through Germany; although a heavier battleship class, the Sovietski Soyuz, was under construction as WWII opened up, it was never brought into action, leaving the Gangut the largest Soviet battleship on record.
