The German battleship Tirpitz was the second of two Bismarck-class battleships built for Nazi Germany’s navy (or Kriegsmarine) in the WWII era. It was named for Grand Admiral Alfred von Tirpitz, and was launched in 1938. It bombarded Allied positions on the island of Spitsbergen in 1943, but was subsequently attacked by British mini-submarines and the 1944 air raids depicted in this film.
