DESCRIPTION - During the war British - and later all Allied - mercantile trade faced the two-pronged threat posed by German submarines and by German surface vessels. Listed here are the regular warships of the German Navy, both those completed and those whose construction was subsequently abandoned or only projected. Primarily due to the curtailment of the `Z' plan, it was not exactly a balanced fleet, but this in no way lessened the constant threat it offered to Allied sea communications while it remained a fleet in being.
