Two heavy heightfinders for a CVL is major overkill.
Since one is facing forward and the other one backwards, complementing each other in an 360º arc, could you please explain your comment?

Good backstory do dictate a lot of things. In terms of ships it remodels Kriegsmarine to the core, when break GB by atlantic convoy raids is not needed, navy will get a lot less funding and all famous capital ships just not materialize.

Let's go back to the year von Witzleben's government finally got a firm grip of the situation in Germany. And yes, as our friend from Poland Rhade put it in his post, Germany saw then itself (1936 and in the AU described here) as sort of guarantee to small nations mainly bordering with the USSR. Tha...
