DKM Hindenburg
The production was stopped because the horizontal armour was to thin against bombing from air. To make a stronger one it had been necessary to make a reinforced hull construction. Thats additional weight of summary 5000t had reduced the construction speed. A more powerfull machinery was not aviable. Also the coasts of this changing the construction was very expensive. And so the Battleship H was stopped and scrapped.
