All Battlecruisers

Name all Battlecruisers from Britain (and Australia), Germany, Japan, United States and Russia.
Includes those that were not completed.
Includes those that were reclassified as Fast Battleships.
The Yorck-class did not have proper names as Germany did not name their ships until after they had been launched. Therefore, they had "Ersatz" at the beginning of their names shown here.
Includes those that have been designated as Large Cruisers.
