Last time I checked, GRAF ZEPPELIN was an aircraft carrier, and was never completed. As for 35,000 ton, 15” battleships, the Germans , under Plan ‘Z’, only ever intended to build two, BISMARCK and TIRPITZ. They DID plan to buld six more battleships. Only MUCH bigger.

March 7, 1942:

"Organized into a column and with their meager belongings in sacks, Jews march into Belzec.
The prisoners were deceived by their guards, who told them they had entered a transit camp from which they would be assigned to various labor camps. Instead, they were sent to the gas chambers."
